  Agnipakhi by Rachna Singh translated by Seema Jain

  ₹749.00 Original price was: ₹749.00.₹690.00Current price is: ₹690.00.

  अग्निपाखी एक प्रभावशाली स्त्री-केंद्रित कहानी-संग्रह है, जो नारी मन की गहराइयों को संवेदनशीलता और सच्चाई के साथ प्रस्तुत करता है। यह केवल दुख या संघर्ष की कहानियाँ नहीं, बल्कि आत्म-खोज, आत्मबल और नए सिरे से जीने की प्रेरणादायक यात्राएँ हैं। अंग्रेज़ी में प्रकाशित रचना सिंह द्वारा लिखित Phoenix in Flames का यह हिंदी अनुवाद सुप्रसिद्ध अनुवादक सीमा जैन ने किया है। इन कहानियों की स्त्रियाँ कठिनाइयों से गुजरती हैं, लेकिन हार नहीं मानतीं। वे हर बार अपनी भीतर की जीवन-शक्ति से प्रेरणा लेकर उठ खड़ी होती हैं—ठीक उसी तरह जैसे फीनिक्स अपनी राख से पुनः जन्म लेता है। हर कहानी पाठक के मन को छूती है और सोचने पर मजबूर करती है। प्रख्यात लेखिका अनामिका के शब्दों में—“बहुत सूझ-बूझ के साथ रचना सिंह ने दुखों के बीच संघर्ष करती स्त्रियों के नैतिक साहस की कहानियाँ रची हैं। ऐसी कहानियाँ एक-दूसरे का मनोबल बढ़ाने में बेहद सहायक होती हैं। इन्हें ‘स्त्री–सुबोधिनी’ का उत्तर-आधुनिक रूप भी कहा जा सकता है।” अग्निपाखी—हर उस स्त्री की कहानी, जो टूटकर भी फ़िर से बनती है।

  Mobin Mohan’s Jacaranda translated from Malayalam into English by Akhil Jose

  ₹399.00

  In Mobin Mohan’s award-winning novel Jacaranda, translated from Malayalam into English by Akhil Jose, the city of Carnovia is transformed every October into a violet-hued paradise where thousands of jacaranda trees bloom in a “violet umbrella”. The story centers on Salvador, an orphan and tourist guide, and his deep connection with Amelia, the daughter of a street musician, whose love is mirrored in the timeless beauty and superstitions of the falling blossoms. However, the idyllic atmosphere is tested when Salvador’s ambitious friend Agostino becomes entangled with a mysterious girl from Gantia, leading the characters away from their “Jacaranda City” and into a world of financial desperation, harsh labor in distant vineyards, and the shadows of historical legacies. Through a narrative rich with poetic symbolism and folklore—including the legend of Saint Dwynwen, the patron of lovers—Mohan explores the resilience of love and the human spirit against the “cruel twists of fate”. This Sahitya Akademi Yuva Puraskar-winning work is a soulful meditation on whether a life rooted in “great goodness” can survive the encroaching darkness of the world.
