Akhtaribai Faizabadi, or Begum Akhtar as she was better known, was a legend even during her own lifetime, and one of the last of the great singers from the tawaif community. Akhtari documents her eventful life and her music through essays and reminiscences by some of her closest friends and associates, and by people who knew her work deeply -- including the likes of Bismillah Khan, Lata Mangeshkar, Shubha Mudgal, etc. The volume also includes long interviews with Begum Akhtar herself as well as some of her disciples. A bestseller in the original Hindi -- and now available in English -- this is a volume to treasure for all of Begum Akhtar's fans and lovers of music.

The beautifully written first biography of one of the world’s finest twentieth-century poets Agha Shahid Ali (1949–2001) was one of the most celebrated American poets of the latter twentieth century, and his works have touched millions of lives around the world. Traversing multiple geographies, cultures, religions, and traditions, he mapped the varied landscapes of the Indian subcontinent and the United States. In this biography, Manan Kapoor narrates Shahid’s evolution, following in the footsteps of the “Beloved Witness” from Kashmir and New Delhi to the American Southwest and Massachusetts. He charts Shahid’s friendships with literary figures such as James Merrill, Salman Rushdie, and Edward Said; explores how Shahid responded to events around the world, including the partition of the Indian subcontinent and the AIDS epidemic in America; and draws on unpublished materials and in-depth interviews to reveal the experiences and relationships that informed his poetry. Hailed upon its release in India as “lush” and “poetic,” A Map of Longings is the story of an extraordinary poet, the works he left behind, and the legacy of his singular poetic vision.

उन्होंने अपनी ठुमरियों और दादरों में पूरबी लास्य का जो पुट लगाया, उसने दिल टूटने को भी दिलकश बना दिया। -सलीम किदवई उनके माथे पर शिकन न होती, ख़ूबसूरत हाथ हारमोनियम पर पानी की तरह चलते, वह आज़ाद पंछी की तरह गातीं। -शीला धर ऐसा मालूम होता था, जैसे उन्होंने उस सबको जज़्ब कर लिया हो, जो उनकी ग़ज़लें व्यक्त करती थीं, जैसे वे बड़ी गहराई से उस सबको महसूस करती हों, जो उनके गीतों के शायरों ने अनुभव किया था। -प्रकाश वढेरा मैं ग़ज़ल इसलिए कहता हूँ, ताकि मैं ग़ज़ल यानी बेगम अख़्तर से नज़दीक हो जाऊँ। -कैफ़ी आज़ादी वे बेहतरी की तलाश में थीं, वे नफषसत से भरी हुई थीं और वजषदारी की तलबगार थीं। -शान्ती हीरानन्द एक यारबाश और शहाना औरत, जिसने अपनी तन्हाई को दोस्त बनाया और दुनिया के फ़रेब से ऊपर उठकर प्रेम और विरह की गुलूकारी की। -रीता गांगुली उनकी लय की पकड़ और समय की समझ चकित करती है। समय को पकड़ने की एक सायास कोशिश न लगकर ऐसा आभास होता है, जैसे वो ताल और लयकारी के ऊपर तैर रही हों। -अनीश प्रधान वो जो दुगुन-तिगुन के समय आवाज़ लहरा के भारी हो जाती थी, वही तो कमाल का था बेगम अख़्तर में। -उस्ताद बिस्मिल्ला खाँ भारतीय उपशास्त्रीय संगीत गायन में बेगम अख़्तर का योगदान अतुलनीय है। ठुमरी की उन विधाओं की प्रेरणा और विकास के लिए, जिन्हें आज हम ‘अख़्तरी का मुहावरा’ या ‘ठुमरी का अख़्तर घराना’ कहते हैं। -उषा वासुदेव

From Anne Frank to Malala Yousafzai, Marco Polo to Muhammad Yunus, Jesse Owens to Thandiwe Chama, Jagadish Chandra Bose to Albert Einstein, and Charles Darwin to Coco Chanel, Wonder Kids gives you a peek into the childhoods of icons from different walks of life.

The grypal are far less than what they once were but no one can recall what that was or how they came to this fate. Though all grypal yearn to regain the power they previously held, none are more persistent in the search than Selac S'laith. Ruthless and driven by an insatiable hunger for power, he uses any one and any means to get what he wants. An unlikely trio and their friends, Ijaka, a katachi warrior, Jasmalea, a horribly inept grypal assassin, and the tiny kit, Musieo are all that stand against him in his hunt to regain what was once lost. The secret to this knowledge of restoration has been well guarded through the ages by a group entrusted to know where it is at all times. The impossible has happened and what they guard has disappeared! Can it be found and Selac stopped before Dutta is plunged into a world of darkness?

In 1528 the Mughal Sultanate conquered and formally incorporated Awadh as one of its constituent provinces. With the decline of Mughal power the nawab-vazirs of Awadh began to assert their independence. After the East India Company appropriated half of Awadh as 'indenmity', the then nawab, Asaf'ud Daulah, moved his capital to Lucknow in 1775. A move that resulted in the growth of the city and its distinctive culture known as'Lakhnavi tehzeeb'. Since then, nawabi Lucknow has undergone enormous changes. The refinement of 'pehle aap' has all but disappeared. Originally built to support a hundred thousand people, amid palaces, gardens and orchards, the city now staggers under the burden of fifty times that number. Its unchecked growth and collapsed civic amenities are slowly draining the life and beauty of this once vibrant city. The rich and flamboyant culture has faded amidst the decay that has eaten into the fabric of the city and the corruption and treachery that permeate the government. In separate pieces William Dalrymple and Barry Bearak trace the decline of Lucknow---the city, its architecture, people, politics, governance---and the sad end of the havelis and their once grandiose occupants. The elegiac Marsia tradition of the Shias strives to be heard over angry chants of 'Hulla Bol' of political rallies in Mrinal Pande's account of her visit to the city. And, in his hyperbolic saga of seven generations of the fictional Anglo-Indian Trotter family, I. Allan Sealy meanders through two hundred years of Lucknow's chequered history. However, despite the apparent disintegration, Lucknow's ineffable spirit can still be found---in the tantalizing flavours of Lakhnavi cuisine; the delicate artistry of chikankari; the legendary courtesans and the defiant voice of the rekhti; the melodious notes of the ghazaI and the thumri ... Engaging and thoughtful, Shaam-e-Awadh: Writings on Lucknow celebrates the unique character of this city of carnivals and calamities.
