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।

The Sun Also Rises is a 1926 novel by American writer Ernest Hemingway. The novel is a roman à clef: the characters are based on real people in Hemingway’s circle, and the action is based on real events, particularly Hemingway’s life in Paris in the 1920s and a trip to Spain in 1925 for the Pamplona festival and fishing in the Pyrenees. Hemingway presents his notion that the “Lost Generation”-considered to have been decadent, dissolute, and irretrievably damaged by World War I-was in fact resilient and strong. Hemingway investigates the themes of love and death, the revivifying power of nature, and the concept of masculinity.

The Metamorphosis ( An Original Classic) by Franz Kafka
- ISBN-13 : 978-8182478688
The metamorphosis’ Is a short novel by Franz Kafka, first published in 1915. It is often cited as one of the seminal works of fiction of the 20th century and is widely studied in colleges and universities across the Western world. The story begins with a travelling salesman, Gregor SA MS a, waking to find himself transformed into an insect. “When Gregor SA MS a woke up one morning from unsettling dreams, he found himself changed in his bed into a monstrous vermin.” with this startling, bizarre, yet surprisingly funny first sentence, Franz Kafka begins his masterpiece, ‘the metamorphosis’. It is the story of a young man who, transformed overnight into a giant beetlelike insect, becomes an object of disgrace to his family, an outsider in his own home, a quintessentially alienated man. A harrowing—though absurdly comic—meditation on human feelings of inadequacy, guilt, and isolation, ‘the metamorphosis’ Has taken its place as one of the most widely read and influential works of twentieth-century fiction.

“For some minutes Alice stood without speaking, looking out in all directions over the country—and a most curious country it was.” curled up in an armchair with her black kitten, Kitty, as Alice shares with it her ideas about a looking-glass house, she suddenly finds herself up on the chimney-piece, on the other side of the mirror. In a room that looks much like her own but where everything is exactly reversed, Alice sees chessmen walking around. And as she steps out of the looking-glass house into the garden of live flowers, she is taken to the Hill by the Red queen. “I declare it‘s marked out just like a large chess-board!” Alice said at last. “There ought to be some men moving about somewhere—and so there are!… Oh, what Fun it is! How I wish I was one of them! I couldn’t mind being a pawn, if only I might join—though of course I should like to be a queen, best.” as Alice embarks on an adventure, joining in as a pawn in the game and exploring this fantastical world of chessmen, Humpty Dumpty, Tweedledum and Tweedledee, will she become a queen?.
