Sreetanwi’s Rhododendrons Narrated with a dazzling, elegiac ferocity, Rhododendrons is refreshingly sensual, intriguingly voluptuous probe into conflicting impulses of human nature. No wonder, it is a daring tale of a woman’s whimsical, capricious adventures into subterranean realms of love, envy, and betrayal. Revealing off-the-wall fantasies and reality shifts in our unsettling metaphysics of domesticity, the novel is a deeply addictive meditation on the strangeness of city life; an astonishing debut novel!

CONTEMPORARY GLOBAL FICTION by Sushmindar Jeet Kaur
₹950.00Original price was: ₹950.00.₹750.00Current price is: ₹750.00.Add to cartIn a world where boundaries are blurred and cultures clash, Contemporary Global Fiction opens a doorway into the complex experiences and stories of our time. With tales that traverse continents and cultures, this anthology captures the turbulent realities facing individuals worldwide. From shifting family structures and rising social inequities to the challenges of migration and identity, the stories delve into the universal struggles that shape modern life. This collection explores issues of migration and cultural dissonance with sensitivity, such as in Ravinder Singh Sodhi’s “Why Did Philip Flip,” which contrasts Eastern and Western cultural perspectives, and Avtar S. Sangha’s incisive “Keerti, Kalicharan and Karla,” which examines the tensions migration brings to both individuals and communities. Each story reflects a vital conversation on coexistence and understanding in a globalized world. The book also sheds light on movements for social justice, with narratives addressing themes like disability, caregiving, and gender inequality. “Davina” by Achingliu Kamei and “May, the Month of May” by Molly Joseph depict the emotional journey of parents of differently-abled children, while O. P. Arora and Harmanjot Kaur explore gender and caste inequities, questioning deep-rooted social norms and heralding hope for change. With loneliness now labeled a potential global epidemic, this volume also reflects on isolation in the digital age. Someeta Das’s “Ashray, The Refuge” offers a compelling story of resilience, turning loneliness into a source of strength and inspiration. The anthology’s young writers add fresh perspectives, such as Soumee Bhaumik’s gripping depiction of addiction in “Ordinary People” and Sargun Singh’s “A Change in Perspective,” which confronts the harsh reality of war. Edited with care by Dr. Sushmindar Jeet Kaur, Contemporary Global Fiction is an insightful anthology that captures the heartbeat of our times. This powerful collection provides readers not only a retreat into fiction but also a poignant reflection of the world, illuminating its challenges and its beauty, one story at a time. -
