Vardaan by Munshi Premchand (Hardcover)
‘वरदान’ दो प्रेमियों की दुखांत कथा है। ऐसे दो प्रेमी जो बचपन में साथ-साथ खेले, जिन्होंने तरुणाई में भावी जीवन की सरल और कोमल कल्पनाएं संजोईं, जिनके सुन्दर घर के निर्माण के अपने सपने थे और भावी जीवन के निर्धारण के लिए अपनी विचारधारा थी। किन्तु उनकी कल्पनाओं का महल शीघ्र ढह गया । विश्व के महान कथा- शिल्पी प्रेमचन्द के उपन्यास वरदान में सुदामा अष्टभुजा देवी से एक ऐसे सपूत का वरदान मांगती है, जो जाति की भलाई में संलग्न हो। इसी ताने-बाने पर प्रेमचन्द की सशक्त कलम से बुना कथानक जीवन की स्थितियों की बारीकी से पड़ताल करता है। सुदामा का पुत्र प्रताप एक ऐसा पात्र है जो दीन-दुखियों, रोगियों, दलितों की निस्वार्थ सहायता करता है।

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.

- Dimensions : 22.5 x 14.5 x 2.3 cm
From the author of Crime and Punishment comes this remarkable collection of short fiction. A selection of ten compelling tales, steeped in Dostoyevsky’s characteristic themes of spiritual torment and psychological struggle, evoke life in Czarist Russia. Featured stories include “The Dream of a Ridiculous Man,” “Bobok,” “An Honest Thief,” “An Unpleasant Predicament,” “Another Man’s Wife,” “The Peasant Marey,” “The Crocodile,” “A Faint Heart,” “A Christmas Tree and a Wedding,” and the title work. Fyodor Dostoyevsky (1821&;1881) created powerful depictions of the human condition that led to significant developments in twentieth-century thought, including psychoanalysis and existentialism. His influence resonates in the works of latter-day authors such as Proust, Faulkner, Hemingway, and Kafka. This collection of his short stories offers thought-provoking glimpses into the Russian author’s moving portrayals of the conflict between flesh and spirit.

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?.
