MAN AND HIS MACHINES ARE DOING A GREAT JOB OF CONQUERING NATURE, OF COURSE. DOES ANYONE DOUBT IT? Excerpt The point about all these queer people you can run into from time to time is just that they aren't really certifiable," said Tex Harrigan in answer to a question of mine. "They're sane enough, and no alienist would give them any more than the normal amount of aberrant concepts or actions." "What's normal?" I asked. "You tell me. Take Peyton Farquahr," Harrigan went on, his pale gray eyes looking far back into the past. "I suppose he was one of the first of those I put into my File of Queer People. You've never heard of him; I needn't ask if you have. He was a gadget inventor; he had no less than sixty-four patents on household gadgets ranging all the way from his 'Little Gem Potato Peeler' and his 'Peerless Magic Eraser' down to his 'Patented Bed-warmer'." "He sounds like a handy man to have around a house," I said. Harrigan laughed long and heartily. "You don't know how ironic that is," he said. "Wait till you hear about him. Like all gadget inventors, he wanted to try his hand at something big, and at last he conceived it- a mechanical house. A house that did everything for you, like a combination maid and housekeeper and valet." "What a pipe dream!" "Take it easy. He built it." "Where?" "Not far outside Denver. I was on the Rocky Mountain Gazette at that time, just beginning my newspaper career. The city editor was a hard-boiled old boy named Davis, Hickman Davis! He called me in one day and gave me a lead. 'Go easy on this boy, ' he said. 'We used to go to school together. He's probably nuts, but he's made money on it. He's got a new invention.' So I went out to his place. Farquahr was a skinny, longhaired fellow with baggy pants and a sports coat, which he appeared never or seldom to change. Not that he was exactly dirty- just careless. I introduced myself and got down to the story. Was it true, I wanted to know, that he was building himself a mechanical house? He admitted it. But so far, he said, the story was under wraps. " What will it do?" I wanted to know. "Everything, Mr. Harrigan, everything," he said to me. "Except, of course, those more intimate little chores and duties performed by one's wife.""Interesting," I said. "But I'm skeptical.""It's your business to be," he agreed.

The person achieves his objective without fretting about anyone if he possesses the yearning and resolves to accomplish something for the society, but then there is that segment in our society that always maintains a negative approach towards everything. They especially strive to distract those who strive for society's betterment and create multiple obstacles in their path. A similar incident transpired with Ambuj to deviate him from his goal. At the same time, vicious circles were structured by the adversaries and by the personnel associated with his organisation.While moving through the path of truthfulness and noble feats, a person often passes through the long haul of sinister, shadowy conduits, where he might ramble in the confusion of his choice. Still, when he approaches the end of the dark tunnel, he encounters the golden rays of pleasant morning rays spreading its light.The novel The Ungrateful is another milestone in the powerful writing of famous litterateur Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal 'Nishank', which exposes both the morally upright, virtuous and ruthless and unscrupulous facets of society. It furnishes the hallmark of bonded, shattered, and reconnected associations.

A Finalist for the 2019 Kirkus Prize in Nonfiction "Nayeri combines her own experience with those of refugees she meets as an adult, telling their stories with tenderness and reverence.” —The New York Times Book Review "Nayeri weaves her empowering personal story with those of the ‘feared swarms’ . . . Her family’s escape from Isfahan to Oklahoma, which involved waiting in Dubai and Italy, is wildly fascinating . . . Using energetic prose, Nayeri is an excellent conduit for these heart–rending stories, eschewing judgment and employing care in threading the stories in with her own . . . This is a memoir laced with stimulus and plenty of heart at a time when the latter has grown elusive.” —Star–Tribune (Minneapolis) Aged eight, Dina Nayeri fled Iran along with her mother and brother and lived in the crumbling shell of an Italian hotel–turned–refugee camp. Eventually she was granted asylum in America. She settled in Oklahoma, then made her way to Princeton University. In this book, Nayeri weaves together her own vivid story with the stories of other refugees and asylum seekers in recent years, bringing us inside their daily lives and taking us through the different stages of their journeys, from escape to asylum to resettlement. In these pages, a couple fall in love over the phone, and women gather to prepare the noodles that remind them of home. A closeted queer man tries to make his case truthfully as he seeks asylum, and a translator attempts to help new arrivals present their stories to officials. Nayeri confronts notions like “the swarm,” and, on the other hand, “good” immigrants. She calls attention to the harmful way in which Western governments privilege certain dangers over others. With surprising and provocative questions, The Ungrateful Refugee challenges us to rethink how we talk about the refugee crisis. “A writer who confronts issues that are key to the refugee experience.” —Viet Thanh Nguyen, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Sympathizer and The Refugees

Literature and philosophy are closely intertwined in this autobiographical and "symphonic" novel, where they are reviewed in all eras of the author's life. In it is described a descending parabola in which it appears a world once happy and serene that slowly sank into darkness and oblivion, according to the classical scheme of the decline of the West as described by some authors who have been of inspiration to its author: Heidegger, Schmitt, Jünger and Spengler, never mentioned expressly, but invisible presences and inexorable judges of the times and the present things, and those to come. It, as a collection of "real" experiences, and for which the author was inspired by the style of British writers Irvine Welsh, David King and David Lodge with a touch of Forsythe, always lived by the author in first person, also wants to be a kind of manual intended not as a collection of practical advice (because there are many other manuals in this regard) but as a lesson based on past things as a warning and teaching for future things, as Herodotus wanted in his "Histories". As it is written in the Gospels: "Repent, because the time is at hand." . The time, in fact, is at hand.
