Joan Liang’s life is a series of surprising developments: she never thought she would leave Taiwan for California, nor did she expect her first marriage to implode—especially as quickly and spectacularly as it did.

Through all this she wrestles with one persistent question: Will she ever truly feel satisfied?

Nel cuore di Shinjuku, a Tokyo, c'è Goldengai, un piccolo quartiere che resiste a grattacieli e speculazione edilizia.

A cominciare da un aspirante sceneggiatore daltonico e una cameriera strabica che cucina yakitori, misteriosa conoscitrice dei felini della zona.

A single bowl of tea. A sharpened blade. Only one can decide the fate of a nation. Japan, 1590. Warlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi, wary that quiet ceremony is blunting his edge, orders his fiercest captain, Katō Masanobu, to ride south and silence Sen no Rikyū — the tea master whose tranquil art has captured the warlord’s soul.

What ...

आज से करीब आठ सौ वर्ष पहले जन्मे रूमी ने धर्म, देश और काल की सभी बाधाओं को लांघ कर अपनी रुबाइयों और गुज़लों से। ऐसा सूफ़ीवाद फैलाया कि वे संसार के सभी देशों में, विशेषकर अमेरिका में, सबसे अधिक पढे । जाने वाले कवि माने जाते हैं। उनका सूफ़ियाना कलाम सैकड़ों वर्षों से लोकप्रिय है। उनके शब्दों ने विभिन्न संस्कृतियों वाले पाठकों के मन को एक समान छुआ है। आध्यात्मिक प्रेम के सहज अतिरेक और उसके वैभव से जितना समृद्ध हमें रूमी ने किया है, उतना और कोई नहीं कर सका है।

गागर में सागर की तरह इस पुस्तक में हिन्दी के कालजयी कवियों की विशाल काव्य-रचना में से श्रेष्ठतम और प्रतिनिधि काव्य का संकलन विस्तृत विवेचन के साथ प्रस्तुत है। रैदास (1410-1500) भक्ति आंदोलन के बड़े और महत्त्वपूर्ण संत कवि हैं। उनके लेखन की सबसे बड़ी विशेषता अपनी जातीय अस्मिता है। मध्यकाल के सीमित समझे जाने वाले सामाजिक परिवेश में अपनी हैसियत और जाति के प्रति ऐसा अकुंठ स्वाभिमान समूचे भक्ति साहित्य में उन्हें विशिष्ट बनाता है। अपनी निर्गुण भक्ति में रैदास जीव और ब्रह्म को एक मानते हैं। मनुष्य को ईश्वर भक्ति और समता के मार्ग से भटकाने वाली माया की निन्दा उनके यहाँ भी बार-बार मिलती है।
