Dear reader,
I hope this book feels like a warm hug to you. I wrote this book for the ones who feel everything too deeply. You’re right, I wrote this book for you.
This book was meant to find you if you’ve ever loved someone who didn’t love you back, if you’ve ever over-invested in the wrong people or if you have a hard time letting go.
I Don’t Love You Anymore is a book that’ll feel like home to you. I promise it’ll hold you gently on your worst days.
Love,
Rithvik
इस कहानी संग्रह की 26 कहानियाँ भावों, दृश्यों और जीवन स्थितियों का एक सुंदर कोलाज बनाती हैं, जिसके इंद्रधनुषी रंग मन ही नहीं, आत्मा तक को छूने, भिगोने, अभिभूत करने और झकझोरने का काम करते हैं। इन कहानियों के पाठ का प्रभाव भी अपने-आप में अनूठा ही होता है। जहाँ “नवरात्र पूजा” संबंधों की मनोवैज्ञानिक गुत्थियों से मिलवाती है तो “एकदा एक्स” प्रेम के आयाम को बड़ा करने की कुंजी पेश करती है, वहीं “दो चाँद और तीन कहानियाँ” में कथाकार युवा मन की दुर्लभ थाह लेते हुए पाठक को अपने साथ गहराई तक ले जाता है।संजीदा पाठकों को दुष्यन्त के उजले-स्याह किरदारों और उनके बहुरंगी कारनामों में मानव सभ्यता के भविष्य की आहटें भी मिलती हैं। यही विविधता समकालीन भारतीय लेखकों में उनको विशिष्ट पहचान देती है।

Room of One’s Own and Three Guineas
Three of Murakami’s best-known and best-loved novels, brought together in one beautiful boxset.
For nearly half a century Murakami has been delighting readers with his deceptively simple writing. His work is both fantastic and realistic, as gripping as it is beguiling. This boxset contains three of the best novels from Japan’s greatest living novelist.
You might start with Norwegian Wood, a story of young love and the book that shot Murakami to literary stardom. The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle displays many of Murakami’s distinctive storytelling tropes – mysterious women and missing cats among them. And Kafka on the Shore, the great masterpiece, is the genre-bending tale of a fifteen-year-old runaway.
A.J. Fikry meets The Bookish Life of Nina Hill in this charming, hilarious, and moving novel about the way books bring lonely souls together.
Two young lovers. Sixty long years. One bookish mystery worth solving.
Librarian Chloe Sampson has been struggling: to take care of her three younger siblings, to find herself, to make ends meet. She’s just about at the end of her rope when she stumbles across a rare edition of a book from the 1960s at the local flea market. Deciding it’s a sign of her luck turning, she takes it home with her―only to be shocked when her cranky hermit of a neighbor swoops in and offers to buy it for an exorbitant price. Intrigued, Chloe takes a closer look at the book only to find notes scribbled in the margins between two young lovers back when the book was new…one of whom is almost definitely Jasper Holmes, the curmudgeon next door.
When she begins following the clues left behind, she discovers this isn’t the only old book in town filled with romantic marginalia. This kickstarts a literary scavenger hunt that Chloe is determined to see through to the end. What happened to the two tragic lovers who corresponded in the margins of so many different library books? And what does it have to do with the old, sad man next door―who only now has begun to open his home and heart to Chloe and her siblings?
In a romantic tale that spans the decades, Chloe discovers that there’s much more to her grouchy old neighbor than meets the eye. And in allowing herself to accept the unexpected friendship he offers, she learns that some love stories begin in the unlikeliest of places.
A young librarian and an old curmudgeon forge the unlikeliest of friendships in this charming uplit novel about one misfit book club and the lives it changed along the way.
Because books have a way of bringing even the loneliest of souls together…
Sloane Parker lives a small, contained life as a librarian in her small, contained town. She never thinks of herself as lonely…but still she looks forward to that time every day when old curmudgeon Arthur McLachlan comes to browse the shelves and cheerfully insult her. Their sparring is such a highlight of Sloane’s day that when Arthur doesn’t show up one morning, she’s instantly concerned. And then another day passes, and another.
Anxious, Sloane tracks the old man down only to discover him all but bedridden…and desperately struggling to hide how happy he is to see her. Wanting to bring more cheer into Arthur’s gloomy life, Sloane creates an impromptu book club. Slowly, the lonely misfits of their sleepy town begin to find each other, and in their book club, find the joy of unlikely friendship. Because as it turns out, everyone has a special book in their heart-and a reason to get lost (and eventually found) within the pages.

With her days divided between perfecting her greenhouse, seeking revenge for her sister’s murder, and putting a gun to the head of anyone in her way, Evelina doesn’t have time for anything else.

Yet the more they learn about the darkness in each other’s hearts, the more alike they seem, and when hatred turns to something more, Nicholas will have to decide whether he can love a wretched woman, even if it means bringing both of their lives to ruin.
