Dubliners: A Beautiful Collection Of vignettes by james joyce (Hardcover)
First Published in 1914, Dubliners is a beautiful collection of vignettes describing Irish middle class life in and around Dublin at the end of the 19th century. Joyce’s intention in writing Dubliners, in his own words, was to write a chapter of the moral history of his own country and he chose Dublin for the scene because the city appeared to him the centre of paralysis and decay. He tried to present it to the apathetic public under four of it’s aspects: childhood, adolescence, maturity and public life. ‘The Sisters, “ An Encounter’ and ‘Araby’ are stories from childhood. “Eveline,’ ‘After the Race,’ ‘Two Gallants’ and ‘The Boarding House’ are stories from adolescence. ‘A Little Cloud. ‘’ Counterparts, ‘’Clay and ‘A Painful Case’ are all Stories concerned with mature life. Stories from public life are ‘Ivy Day in the Committee Room. ‘ ‘ A Mother’ and ‘Grace. ‘’ The Dead’ is the last story in the collection and most certainly Joyce’s greatest. It stands alone and as the Title would suggest, is concerned with death.

Hindu Pad-Padashahi By Veer Savakar (Hardcover)
Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, also known as Swatantryaveer Savarkar, was a freedom fighter and an Indian independence leader and politician who coined the Hindu nationalist ideology of Hindutva. “Hindu Pad Padshahi,” refers to the idea of establishing a Hindu monarchy or a Hindu kingdom. This concept was proposed by Savarkar as part of his vision for India’s future. He believed that an independent India should be a Hindu- majority nation, where Hindu culture and values would be dominant. Savarkar’s ideas and philosophy, on the concept of “Hindu Pad Padshahi,” have been subjects of both praise and criticism. While some consider him a visionary and a champion of Hindu rights, others criticize his ideology for its emphasis on religious identity and its potential exclusionary nature.
