Chandranath / चन्द्रनाथ

यह कहना अतिशयोक्ति न होगी कि यदि बंगला साहित्य में से शरत् को हटा दिया जाए, तो उसके पास जो कुछ शेष रहेगा वह न रहने के बराबर ही होगा। शरत् ने बंगला साहित्य को समृद्ध ही नहीं किया है अपितु उसे परिमार्जित भी किया है। धर्म के नाम पर समाज के ठेकेदार, आम आदमी पर किस तरह हावी होते हैं यह सर्वविदित है? उन्हें अपने चंगुल में फँसाने के लिए इन ठेकेदारों ने क्या—क्या प्रपंच नहीं किए? ‘चंद्रनाथ’ ऐसा उपन्यास है, जिसका नायक परंपरागत सामाजिक बंधनों और संकीर्ण मानसिकताओं का शिकार है, अंततः क्या वे रूढ़िवादी सामाजिक बंधनो को तोड़ सके या समाज की बुराइयो से लड़ सके? भारतीय साहित्यकार शरतचन्द्र के अनूठे उपन्यास का सरल हिंदी अनुवाद, जो सभी वर्ग के पाठकों के लिए रोचक, सरल एवं सुबोध एवं संग्रहणीय है।

Sukrat Ek Mahatma / सुकरात एक महात्मा

आज से कोई 2400 वर्ष पूर्व यूनान के एथेंस नगर में एक फक्कड़ महात्मा हुए, जिनका नाम था सुकरात। यह ऐसा नाम है, जो मरकर भी अमर है और आनेवाले युगों-युगों तक रहेगा। सुकरात राजनीति के भीष्म पितामह के समान समाद्रित हैं और पूरी मानव जाति की सर्वश्रेष्ठ सम्पदा हैं। इतने महान दार्शनिक को ख़ुद उनके ही देश के शासक ने नहीं समझा और उन पर मुकदमा चलाया गया और मृत्युदंड दिया गया। जेल में ही उन्होंने शान्त भाव से विषपान किया और महाप्रयाण कर गए, किंतु मृत्यु के कुछ वर्षों पश्चात यही सुकरात एक महान दार्शनिक के रूप में सर्वमान्य हुए।

Chhotu-“A Name, A Dream, A Story”|Inspiring and Motivational Fiction

She weaves through the traffic, fresh flowers in hand. He brings your chai in a bustling tea-stall. Before you can ask their names, they disappear in the crowd.
On the streets of India, you often find a curious sight: chirpy kids scurrying about, catering to your every need, be it an urgent bicycle repair or a quick caffeine fix, their eyes sparkling with hopes and dreams.
They’re small — so small, they slip through the cracks. They are everywhere, yet they are invisible.
Chhotu, a collection of ten tales, is a glimpse into the world of every ‘Chhotu’ — the child behind the name, the broken-tooth smile, and their untold story of hope, resilience, and rebellion.
Do you remember the last Chhotu you met? Did you ask him his name?

Booms, Busts and Market Cycles

Throughout this book, you’ll encounter dialogues—some real, others imagined—that bring investing to life through characters who challenge, provoke and amuse. Vikram and Betal wrestle with paradoxes. Bholu embodies the linear thinking common to many retail investors. Alongside them, the Buddha and Mahavir lend their voices as Maneesh Dangi explores probabilistic thinking counterfactuals, iterative processes and the layered truths of market cycles—ideas rooted in our ethos. You’ll also meet Vijay from Agneepath, who risks everything for conviction; the Joker, who thrives in chaos; and Thanos, who sees markets as governed by brutal discipline.

Booms, Busts and Market Cycles is one of the few books on investing that offers investors a framework to navigate market cycles, avoid losses and create long-term wealth. It busts various myths surrounding investing and critically analyses different investing approaches, highlighting their advantages and drawbacks. From how ‘buy stocks slowly and sell fast’ works, to why asset allocators must do the reverse—buy markets quickly and sell slowly—this book offers a blend of rules, reflections and reframing. It is not a
book of formulas. It’s a book of ideas—drawn from markets, guided by Indian tradition, shaped by Dangi’s own experiences and written for those who believe investing is as much about understanding oneself as it is about understanding the world. Not a technical manual, Booms, Busts and Market Cycles is a deeper exploration of the craft of managing money—a delicate balance of art and science.

Courtesans Don’t Read Newspapers

Nothing is as it seems, yet it is more so . . .

Anil Yadav chooses to tell stories that force you to stretch your emotions, question the world of privilege as the characters begin to find their way somewhere deep within you.
In Courtesans Don’t Read Newspapers a reporter faces the moral dilemma of reporting a conspiracy threatening the existence of a colony of prostitutes. Lord Almighty. . . is a socio-political take on the condition of those on the fringes of society where a riot can both destroy and save them. In The Magic of Certain Old Clothes vanity is explored very subtly through secondhand clothes. The Folk Singer’s Swan Song tells the story of a singer where his music gets inextricably linked to politics and power. R.J. Saheb’s Radio delves through the themes of past and present, the rich and the poor, The road to the other world is a poignant tale of loss, a story of a memory.
Strange things make complete sense in Yadav’s stories. You imagine that this is a different world, but it’s the same world with a deeper, sharper, more focused lens.
