In neighborhoods, schools, community centers, and workplaces, people are using oral history to capture and collect the kinds of stories that the history books and the media tend to overlook: stories of personal struggle and hope, of war and peace, of family and friends, of beliefs, traditions, and values—the stories of our lives. Catching Stories: A Practical Guide to Oral History is a clear and comprehensive introduction for those with little or no experience in planning or undertaking oral history projects. Opening with the key question, “Why do oral history?” the guide outlines the stages of a project from idea to final product—planning and research, the interviewing process, basic technical principles, and audio and video recording techniques. The guide covers interview transcribing, ethical and legal issues, archiving, funding sources, and sharing oral history with audiences. Intended for teachers, students, librarians, local historians, and volunteers as well as individuals, Catching Stories is the place to start for anyone who wants to document the memories and collect the stories of community or family.

In Catching Fish the monsoon have flooded the streets; fish leap and swim about to the delight of a group of little boys, who try their best to catch them, only to encounter a marvellous talking fish who becomes their friend. In Quilt a young boy has an enchanting meeting with a pair of magical quilt-makers, who pluck the clouds as stuffing from the sky. In Growing Up a pair of childhood girl friends find that somehow the years have slipped by, turning them into demure young women. Meera Mukherjee was one of India s leading sculptors, whose bronzes, inspired by wax-technique of the tribal dhokra craftsmen, have made her a major name in contemporary Indian art. A multi-faceted personality, she has worked as a cultural anthropologist, studied and practised music, written, sketched and drawn. Her involvement with the life of the village where she did her bronze casting led her to evolving creative and income-generation projects with the women and children. Whimsical, impulsive and deeply sensitive, her art moves easily from the physical to the spiritual, from nuanced detail to symbolic abstraction. It is this quality of simultaneously inhabiting both the everyday life and fantasy co-exist as in a child s imagination, that comes to life in this collection of delightful stories, written and charmingly illustrated by her. Simple, tender stories, peopled with children off our streets and from our villages, stories full of wonder and whimsy in which the magical often transforms drab reality and becomes another way of seeing it. Her lively sketches and drawings enliven the text, and the result is a set of tales rich in unusual characters lovingly drawn by Meera Mukherjee in this set of unique artist s books marked with her unmistakable personality and style. Anjum Katyal is an editor based in Calcutta. She has several translations to her credit.

Not many writers introduce a phrase - let alone a whole idea - into the language. In CATCH-22, Joseph Heller invented a motif for the modern world. For that book alone he is one of the greatest American writers of the twentieth century. But where did the author who was able to create that novel come from? And what happened to those remarkable characters? CATCH AS CATCH CAN for the first time collects early works, previously unpublished stories and lost chapters of CATCH-22 to chart the development of a genius. It also explores the consequences in the later stories of the unforgettable Yossarian, and Heller's non-fiction pieces, in which the author reflects upon his childhood in Coney Island and the novel which shaped everything that was written after it.

A terrific historical novel full of compelling events, vivid communities and the irresistible character of Conrad Rasmussen. In this companion novel to the bestselling Denniston novels, the free spirit is pitted against the forces of tradition. On the run from an unfortunate 'indiscretion', young Conrad Rasmussen finds refuge in the North Island of New Zealand under the employ of the famous (or notorious) Dane, Bishop Monrad. However Conrad - a talented and impetuous Faroeman, known in bestselling author Jenny Pattrick's Denniston novels as Con the Brake - finds he cannot escape his past. This is Conrad's story, and that of the unusual woman Anahuia. It is a tale of new lands and old songs, of seafaring and war and the search for love. It is also the story of the Faroe Islands and of Denmark's early connection with New Zealand.

A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year This lyrical middle-grade novel-in-verse celebrates the power of story and of finding one’s individual voice. Keet knows the only good thing about moving away from her Alabama home is that she'll live near her beloved grandfather. When Keet starts school, it's even worse than she expected, as the kids tease her about her southern accent. Now Keet, who can "talk the whiskers off a catfish," doesn't want to open her mouth. While fishing with her grandfather, she learns the art of listening and gradually, she makes her first new friend. But just as she's beginning to settle in, her grandfather has a stroke, and even though he's still nearby, he suddenly feels ever-so-far-away. Keet is determined to reel him back to her by telling him stories; in the process she finds her voice and her grandfather again.
