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.

E nel cuore di Goldengai c'è un localino stretto e lungo dove si raccolgono i randagi del posto, siano essi gatti o esseri umani.

The command is brutal and clear: remove the spell, whatever the cost. Yet when steel meets steam in a moss-lined tearoom, assassin and target lock eyes across a whisked-green horizon and discover that honor can flow like water, reshaping even the hardest sword.

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।

In his fourth book of poems, award-winning poet Garrett Hongo sees coastlines and waters, skylines and ancestral lines for what they inspire and teach.

Charles Goh has always played by the rules. It’s how he survived his difficult childhood as the swotty foreigner at a posh English boarding school—and now, his high-pressure job at one of the biggest corporate law firms in London. His job is his life and he's happy that way … until she shows up.

In Open Mouths Sharan Hunjan presents a vision of a world simultaneously familiar and strikingly strange. The quotidian, the domestic, the commonplace are interrogated and manipulated through the poet's eye for detail, linguistic sense of play and restless imaginative and philosophical impulses.
