Soft cover. Condizione: New. It is an exciting day for cloth doll Gudiya and her friends, as they arrive in Kolkata right during the Durga Puja festivities. It is her first time in the big city, and there is so much to look at! The cloud-catching tall buildings, the thousands of people on the roads, the lights and the strange pink toys in the neon-lit toy shop. Surprised at how different they look, Gudiya, the terracotta horse, the shola dolls and all their other friends strike up a conversation with the very stylish and slightly mean Bettys, teddies and action figures. As they discuss their VERY OPPOSITE lives, purpose and origins, the chat soon turns into a GREAT BIG DEBATE. Who will be the winners, the lovingly crafted handmade toys or the cleverly designed factory-made toys? Can these two opponents ever become friends?

Soft cover. Condizione: New. 1st Edition. Which temple in India has the secrets of the universe locked away in an icy cave? Where in the country would you find a shrine for a divine doctor? Which goddess likes to be offered veggies as prasad? Temples in India are not just spaces for worship they are also living museums of architectural wonders, mind-boggling sculptures, graceful dances, colourful crafts, and many other cultural traditions. Most of all, they are treasure troves of lore and legend, teeming with tales of gods and goddesses, demons and devotees, plants and beasts, the magical and the mundane. In this unique, unputdownable book, Sudha G. Tilak takes you on a whirlwind tour of the fascinating world of India's temples, where stories come alive, and the lines between fact and faith are blurred.

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Ganesan returns, after four decades, to the town of his childhood, filled with memories of love and loneliness, of youthful beauty and the ravages of age and misfortune, of the promise of talent and its slow destruction. Seeking treatment for leprosy, he must also come to terms with his past: his exploitation at the hands of older men, his growing consciousness of desire and his own sexual identity, his steady disavowal of Brahminical morality and his slowly degenerating body. He longs for liberation-sexual, social and spiritual-but finally finds peace only in self-acceptance. This translation of the groundbreaking Tamil novel Pasitha Manidam, first published in 1978, offers deep insight into the conservative and caste-conscious temple town of Kumbakonam, viewed here with dispassionately cold clarity as a society that utterly fails its own. Sudha G. Tilak deftly builds upon Karichan Kunju's prose to expose this world, raw, real, without frills or artifice. The themes of masculinity, desire and sexuality, caged within caste and repression, all combine to give readers front-row seats to the many acts we put on for and as a community.
