Story
In an essay in this anthology, Khushwant Singh claims that he is not a nice man to know. Whatever the truth of that assertion, there is little question about his skill as a witty, eloquent, and entertaining writer. This book collects the best of over three decades of the author’s prose - including his finest journalistic pieces, short stories, translations, jokes, plays, as well as excerpts from his nonfiction books and novels.

Namita Gokhale and Malashri Lal, who brought us In Search of Sita: Revisiting Mythology, now present an anthology on the mysterious Radha, the epitome of love, who defies all conventional codes yet transcends social prohibitions through the power of the spiritual and the sensual, the sacred and the erotic. Finding Radha is the first of its kind: a collection of poetry, prose, and translation that enter the historical as well as the artistic dimensions of the eternal romance of Radha and Krishna.

Dharma Artha Kama Moksha [Dharma Meaning Work Salvation]

Story
Artha-shastra is about generating food, i.e. wealth, by creating goods and services; Kama-shastra is about indulging our hungers with this food. Dharma-shastra insists we consider the hunger of others, while Moksha-shastra is about outgrowing our hungers, in order to be detached and generous. Together, these four Hindu shastras provide a framework within which human action, its purposes and consequences, can be defined; together, they validate human existence and give it meaning.

Story
In this self-portrait by an American genius, Kurt Vonnegut writes with beguiling wit and poignant wisdom about his favorite comedians, country music, a dead friend, a dead marriage, and various cockamamie aspects of his all-too-human journey through life. This is a work that resonates with Vonnegut's singular voice: the magic sound of a born storyteller mesmerizing us with truth.

Michael Chabon, author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, Manhood for Amateurs and Moonglow, returns with a collection of heartfelt, humorous and insightful essays on the meaning of fatherhood.

"O cotidiano nem sempre é tomado apenas por questões profundas. E nem só delas vive o homem, mas também de banalidades. Muitas vezes, ele é tomado por questões ‘menores’, e é a elas que nos dedicaremos aqui. O cotidiano tenderá a ser mais pobre no futuro. Mais entediante e previsível. Refletiremos sobre pequenas questões neste livro.”

Story
Napoli è la città meno equilibrata del mondo. È una metropoli complessa, piena di sfaccettature, è più città in una: un miscuglio di colori e di stati d'animo, di stili architettonici e classi sociali, di sapori dolci e salati, pastiera e pizza, sfogliatella e ragù, di musica antica e neomelodica, di fede e scaramanzia. Come fare allora a catturare le sue mille anime? Acuto osservatore dei piccoli e grandi fatti di cronaca della sua città, Lorenzo Marone sceglie di raccontare Napoli a modo suo, lasciandosi sorprendere da ciò che gli accade intorno.

In Ex Libris, she offers a personal selection of more than 100 works of fiction, nonfiction and poetry, with passionate essays on why each has had a profound effect on her life.

Story
What happens to the adolescent spirit when all vestiges of innocence about the world are foregone, replaced within the grinding sounds of concrete and metal of the CBD of Melbourne? A place where train tunnels become nesting sites, carpark stairwells spots to refuel on methamphetamine and hide from predators; where agility leads you across nightclub rooftops, yielding cash in tight spaces with a quick reflex. For a rest, why not ride on the back of a train as it speeds through the night? The dangers of a decades-long exploration of risk in the streets of his city is exhilarating.

P.J. O'Rourke traces his development from hippie protester to conservative grouch to jaded humorist. Along the way, we are privy to his strange, twisted days as editor in chief of National Lampoon, as well as the in-depth looks at appropriate sports for middle-aged Republicans, namely those which can be engaged in with a smuggled Havana between the teeth - fly-fishing, bird hunting, deep-sea fishing, and of course, golf. Plus, you'll hear O'Rourke's take on the Virtues of Automobiles - because what good was oil doing sitting in the ground for millions of years? - and many other hilarious rants in this off-the-wall collection by America's premier political humorist.
