Anuradha By Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay (Hardcover)
लड़की के विवाह योग्य आयु होने के सम्बन्ध में जितना भी झूठ बोला जा सकता है, उतना झूठ बोलने के बाद भी उसकी सीमा का अतिक्रमण किया जा चुका है और अब तो विवाह होने की आशा भी समाप्त चुकी है। ‘मैया री मैया! यह कैसी बात है?” से आरम्भ करके, आंखें मिचकाकर लड़की के लड़के-बच्चों की गिनती पूछने तक में अब किसी को रस नहीं मिलता। समाज में अब यह मजाक भी निरर्थक समझा जाने लगा है। ऐसी ही दशा है बेचारी अनुराधा की। और दिलचस्प बात यह है कि घटना किसी प्राचीन युग की नहीं बल्कि एकदम आधुनिक युग की है। इस आधुनिक युग में भी केवल दान- दहेज, पंचाग, जन्म-कुंड़ली और कुल-शील की जांच-पड़ताल करते-करते एसा हुआ कि अनुराधा की उम्र तेईस को पार कर गई, फिर भी उसके लिए वर नहीं मिला।

Dear Enemy ( An Original Classic ) by Jean Webster (Hardback)
- Page : 188
- ISBN : 9789394885660
- Dimensions : 22.5 x 14.5 x 1.5 cm
Jean Webster (1876-1916) was an American novelist, playwright, and social activist. During the start of the twentieth century (1912), Webster wrote “Daddy-Long-Legs”, an epistolary, best-selling novel that she developed into a play. It met with much success, and the characters were sold as dolls, the money from which going to charities to help fund orphan adoptions. In 1915, Webster published the sequel, “Dear Enemy”. Written in the same epistolary form, “Dear Enemy” met with best-selling acclaim as well. The novel is unique in that the story is propelled by crude, stick-figure animations, drawn by Webster herself, that add a whimsical air to the social issues addressed, the care of orphans and women’s life choices in particular. Sadly, Webster died of childbirth fever in 1916, just a year after the success of “Dear Enemy”.

Devdas By Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay (Hardcover)
‘देवदास, पारो और चन्द्रमुखी- ये तीन किरदार प्रेम ५के ऐसे प्रतीक बन गये हैं कि उनकी गिनती लैला-मजनू, शीरी – फरहाद, हीर-रांझा के साथ होने लगी है। बीसवीं सदी के बंगाल के ज़मींदार समाज की पृष्ठभूमि में स्थित यह एक मार्मिक प्रेमगाथा है। इसमें देवदास को अपने बचपन की साथी पारो से अटूट प्यार है। लेकिन यह प्यार परवान नहीं चढ़ता। हताश, परेशान देवदास जब शराब को अपना सहारा बना लेता है तब उसकी ज़िन्दगी में आती है चन्द्रमुखी। देवदास और चन्द्रमुखी का रिश्ता अनोखा है- जिसमें प्यार की अनुभूति के विभिन्न रंग एक साथ झलकते हैं। उपन्यास के हर पृष्ठ पर लेखक की गहरी संवेदना, बारीकी से अपने आस-पास के समाज को देखने-परखने की नज़र और इन सबको अपनी कलम से कागज़ पर उतारने की बेजोड़ क्षमता ही कारण है कि 1917 में लिखा यह उपन्यास आज भी पाठकों के बीच इतना लोकप्रिय है। बांगला लेखक शरतचन्द्र चट्टोपाध्याय के इस लोकप्रिय उपन्यास का अनेक भाषाओं में अनुवाद हो चुका है और भारत में ही इस पर कई भाषाओं में एक दर्जन से अधिक फिल्में बन चुकी हैं।
