In the fictional Indian town of Maya, it is easier to get lost than anywhere else in the world. In a place where madmen talk to trees and old women smoke from chillums, a little girl named Aditi sits in her little room, with her crayons sprawled on the dusty floor, creating her first drawing. Soon, a peaceful landscape appears on the page, with a sky overhead that is bright and blue. But as the novel progresses, and Aditi interacts with the “giant spider-web of Maya”, she begins to lose things that are close to her heart. At the same time, the landscape in her drawings grows darker and darker, threatening to destroy what was once a perfect innocence. Unassuming and uncompromising, It 's Raining in Maya reaches out with its poetry, grasping the human condition amidst the surreal, and delivering a rhythmic pulse whose cadence keeps time for the sadness and hope before us. "Five stars... Part coming-of-age story and part poem, It's Raining in Maya chronicles the tale of a girl moving between the world of her imagination and the reality around her. This book will appeal to readers fond of the lyricism and lessons in such books as The House on Mango Street... The joy of It's Raining in Maya is in its restraint... This is a story in which people believe the lake was formed by the tears of a “heavy cloud that fell in love with a star.” In It's Raining in Maya, myth and mysticism dance together to create a world where fantasy becomes reality." - Lisa Bower, Foreword Clarion Review "It is a river that runs deep and hence deceptively smooth... It is perforce subtle, intimate, creative, aesthetic. It is felt, not just seen. It is experienced, not just know" - V. Dwaraknath Reddy, Author of The Physics of Karma and 6 other titles

The essays collected here offer important new reflections on the multiple images of and rhetoric surrounding the rain forest. The slogan “Save the Rain Forest!”—emblazoned on glossy posters of tall trees wreathed in vines and studded with monkeys and parrots—promotes the popular image of a marvelously wild and vulnerable rain forest. Although representations like these have fueled laudable rescue efforts, in many ways they have done more harm than good, as these essays show. Such icons tend to conceal both the biological variety of rain forests and the diversity of their human inhabitants. They also frequently obscure the specific local and global interactions that are as much a part of today’s rain forests as are the array of plants and animals. In attending to these complexities, this volume focuses on specific portrayals of rain forests and the consequences of these characterizations for both forest inhabitants and outsiders. From diverse disciplines—history, archaeology, sociology, literature, law, and cultural anthropology—the contributors provide case studies from Latin America, Asia, and Africa. They point the way toward a search for a rain forest that is both a natural entity and a social history, an inhabited place and a shifting set of ideas. The essayists demonstrate how the single image of a wild and yet fragile forest became fixed in the popular mind in the late twentieth century, thereby influencing the policies of corporations, environmental groups, and governments. Such simplistic conceptions, In Search of the Rain Forest shows, might lead companies to tout their “green” technologies even as they try to downplay the dissenting voices of native populations. Or they might cause a government to create a tiger reserve that displaces peaceful peasants while opening the doors to poachers and bandits. By encouraging a nuanced understanding of distinctive, constantly evolving forests with different social and natural histories, this volume provides an important impetus for protection efforts that take into account the rain forest in all of its complexity.
