One Action to Transform your Mind
I remember the moment when i knew something bigger was meant for me.
In my younger years, i was working for a bookstore at the airport and the longer i worked there, i noticed how people behaved differently before flying to their destination.
From the guy who demanded to get a newspaper at 4am in the morning to the business people who went on their way, i slowly noticed what they bought and how they treated me.
Certain people bought the newspaper. Certain people bought books. Certain people stocked up on candy and chocolate.
And those certain people behaved differently as well. The ones who were respectful. The ones who were excited. The ones who were lovely, The ones who were rude. And the ones who were complacent.
Slowly, I asked questions to the ones who I aspired to become and noticed what they were interested in. I took note.
But also from boredom and pure curiosity, i browsed through those books and I noticed one particular book: Think and Grow Rich. And hey, i knew i could ‘think’ but grow rich. Come on.
I picked up the book and i was surprised how easy the book was easy to read. And yes, there was woo-woo talk. Esoteric talk that makes the normal person go - what the heck does that mean?
But it made me think.
It was the first book that left a lasting impression on me. I honestly believed when i changed my mindset and my attitude, i can achieve all my goals.
From humble beginnings, I knew by reading this book i would give me the strength and strategy to move forward in life.
When i was growing up, the only resource was the library and now we have all these amazing resources at our finger tips. From podcasts, articles and iTunes, information is only a tap away.
From that moment on, i continue to read books that i can learn from peoples knowledge and experiences. Listen to peoples podcasts and regularly watch YouTube.
Lasting change - and good change - takes time. Changing your mindset takes time.
Reading is one of the best ways to learn and reflect. Reading is also the best way to challenge your thinking.
From humble beginnings, i was taught you had to be a certain person to get what you want.
But what they don’t tell you is that you can become the person you want to be with unadulterated hard work.
No fluff - just a lot of sweat and frankly some tears.
With curiosity, patience and persistence, life can slowly evolve into something you have always wanted.

Living by the gun in Chad: Combatants, impunity and state formation, London, Zed Books, 2016.
Allegra, Anthropological Quarterly, Foreign Affairs, African Affairs, Journal of Modern African Studies, Journal of Contemporary African Studies, Mail & Guardian, New York Review of Books, Ny Tid.
How do people live in a country that has experienced rebellions and state-organised repressions for decades and that is still marked by routine forms of violence and impunity? What do combatants do when they are not mobilised for war? Drawing on over ten years of fieldwork conducted in Chad, Marielle Debos explains how living by the gun has become both an acceptable form of political expression and an everyday occupation. Contrary to the popular association of violence and chaos, she shows that these fighters continue to observe rules, frontiers and hierarchies, even as their allegiances shift between rebel and government forces, and as they drift between Chad, Libya, Sudan and the Central African Republic. Going further, she explores the role of the globalised politico-military entrepreneurs and highlights the long involvement of the French military in the country. Ultimately, the book demonstrates that ending the war is not enough. The issue is ending the ‘inter-war’ which is maintained and reproduced by state violence. Combining ethnographic observation with in-depth theoretical analysis, Living by the Gun in Chad is a crucial contribution to our understanding of the intersections of war and peace.

As ever the library worked wonders. I had reserved a copy but when I arrived Wednesday morning I saw a copy on the shelf and so I grabbed it on my way to the desk. It was one of the bestseller editions which meant that I could only take it out for 7 days – 7 days, no worries. And so they cancelled my original reservation and I took this copy instead. Of course whilst I was there I couldn’t resist having a nosy see what other books they had and so I left the building with a further two novels, a little book for Emily and a couple of home decor books to boot. I do wish I could find a way to get the girls to read more by choice. As I walked back to the car I was almost skipping, I absolutely LOVE having new books to devour but reading during the day feels like a guilty pleasure. I wish I could get paid to do it, that would solve that issue. On the topic of guilty pleasures, I haven’t scrapped in an age. As I type and look around me I know why – my desk is a tip. At some point I must make that a priority. Right now though, I think I’ll read lol x

Tansy and I started out with a challenge to read every book written by Agatha Christie, in order of publication – we’re blogging as we go along. We spoil all the things!
So, first, I just need to get it off my chest that one of my first shocks in this book is that Lettice Protheroe’s name is Lettice, and not Lettuce. I have read and seen this book several times before and to me she is always *Lettuce*. Having read the book before also meant that the murderer was not a surprise, nor were any of the other mysteries that were uncovered during the story. And this meant I could really focus on how Miss Marple is portrayed in her first full length book*. Miss Marple is certainly not the star of ‘The Murder at the Vicarage’, which is narrated, perhaps appropriately, by the Vicar (Mr Clements). She is introduced of one of several gossipy old ladies at a morning tea held by the Vicar’s wife, the inappropriate Griselda, and both the Vicar and Griselda have relatively low opinions of these ‘old cats’, as they are referred to often. Actually I suspect that Christie might have been writing this book so that Miss Marple herself was a surprise - it only becomes apparent that Miss Marple’s ‘gossip’ has rather more substance than Mrs Price Ridley’s or Miss Hartnell’s as the story develops. I wonder if anyone realised how iconic she would become.
The narration by the Vicar is quite reminiscent to that of Hastings narration for Poirot - or even of Dr. James Sheppard (the murderer) in ‘The Murder of Roger Ackeroyd’, and it seems to be a common technique for Christie to use in her proper ‘whodunnits’ (as compared to the slightly whacky spy stuff we have also seen to-date). I guess it’s a good technique because the narrator can be led on a few wild goose chases and suitably surprised when the murderer is revealed. The narrator can also be unreliable - quite spectacularly so in the case of Dr Sheppard - and even I think a little bit in the case of the Vicar, who I think doesn’t like to admit just how much he loves his inappropriate wife.
Miss Marple doesn’t have a constant companion, so I will be looking with interest to see how the narration is undertaken in future Marple books (because for the life of me I cannot remember!!) I was surprised that Miss Marple’s nephew, the writer Raymond West, was present in this, her first book. I had imagined he was an addition of later stories, and he was a good deal more fashionable and callow than I remember him, though again perhaps that again is coloured by the Vicar’s narration (and potential jealousy of the attraction of Griselda to Raymond!)
And just a word on the murderer(s). Is it my imagination, but have a number of Christie’s murderers to-date been rather charming men who turn out to be far more ruthless than first seems? Perhaps I should start a tally. I also wonder how scandalous it was that Lawrence Redding and Mrs Protheroe were having an extramarital affair in 1930. It’s not so shocking now, but there are a number of hints that several ladies could have been gallivanting around with Lawrence, which surely was a bit risque?
All in all, I really enjoyed this reread of ‘The Murder at the Vicarage’. It’s full of excellent misdirection, character studies and village gossip, which is really what I think of when I think of a Christie whodunnit.
*Apparently Miss Marple’s first appearance was in a short story ‘The Tuesday Night Club’, written in 1926. However the collection it was published in - ‘The Thirteen Problems’ - was not published until 1932, so we have a few books to go until we get to it...
I really enjoyed this! I hadn’t read it before so I was quite surprised at how unappealing Miss Marple was early on - she seemed really gossipy and horrible and gradually became more and more likeable as the story went on. By the end she felt more like the Miss Marple I know from later books - gentler and more knowing and subtle. Possibly this is a case of the character simply growing as the author wrote her, but I like to think it’s because, as you say, the vicar’s perspective also shifts throughout the novel.
The story felt so similar to Roger Ackroyd, largely because of the way the narrator was set up, that I was almost convinced that our lovely vicar had in fact done the murder himself, except that I was fairly sure if she had pulled that trick again I would have heard about it. The Len-Griselda relationship was fascinating, and itself something of a mystery to be unravelled. I was very happy that there was nothing at all to be suspicious about either of them, as Griselda in particular was such a funny character. How terribly modern of her to commit to being an appalling housewife, and to cleave to her bad maid in order to keep her!
Len reluctantly convincing Mary to stay was one of my favourite scenes in the book, but it was full of all kinds of domestic gems.
The plot of this one is fascinating too - it’s another tricky one, though not as famous I guess as ‘they all did it’ or ‘the narrator did it’ to be talked about more? But I like that once again Christie is providing meta commentary on the genre of the murder mystery, in this case noting that realistically, the most obvious suspect is usually the murderer. And of course this has the whole ‘if a murderer was clever they would act suspiciously because acting innocent is a dead giveaway’ trick to it, which is nicely done.
Raymond was quite appalling! I’ve never seen him on screen before, only remember Miss Marple talking about him, so I was quite amused by what a vulgar intellectual snob he seemed to be. Again, though, the vicar’s perspective colours everything.
All in all, this is a lovely launch for Miss Marple and I like how much we get to see her working out how exactly a little old lady should go about being a detective, from first principles. Can you believe it was another twelve years before she appeared in another novel? Thank goodness for short stories!

Les Cotils 'Andrew Mitchell Library' incorporating the 'Deanery Library'
This ecumenical Library was originally set up as a facility of Les Cotils Christian Centre in 2000 to provide a resource for those seeking information about Christianity, and also some devotional and recreational reading for retreat and holiday visitors. This was made possible through a generous donation from the Andrew Mitchell Christian Charitable Trust, which gave the library its name.
In 2002, books from the Anglican Deanery Library, then housed at the Prialx Library, were amalgamated with Les Cotils collection, greatly increasing the theological and scripture study sections. These have continued to grow with funding from the Deanery, Churches Together in Guernsey and many other generous donors.
There has also been expansion of the spiritual and devotional sections and a section for Youth (teaching) and Drama.
The library now numbers well over 6,000 books.


by Author - Dawn Roy - Dawn Moore Roy
In her exciting debut novel,
Gray, Dawn Moore Roy weaves a brilliant narrative latticework in striking prose with measured surprises of lovely lyricism.
GRAY is a poignant and original exploration of doubt, humility, and judgment.
“Roy is a very talented writer, often wickedly so.”

About the Author
Dawn Roy has been a home engineer for most of her life, managing a ménage of various biped and quadruped creatures.
Her writing began decades ago with daily (almost) entries into her very personal journals. Along the way she became afflicted by the psychiatric disorder of aspiring to be a writer and after staring at stacks and stacks of annual diaries, her illness developed, leading her to complete a master’s degree in creative writing from the University of Edinburgh, where a special professor cured her by saying, “Just write a damn book.” So she did, and now feels ready to share it.
Roy lives in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, with her husband and German Shepherd, Otto.
A viscerally lush, sometimes playful,
and unflinching exploration of loss, sexuality, and the search for fulfillment, even in the face of death.
Reviews of Dawn Moore Roy's Work
"A viscerally lush, sometimes playful,
and unflinching exploration of loss, sexuality, and the search for fulfillment, even in the face of death."
Reviews of Gray
"" Roys approach emphasizes observation with original, artfully expounded detail, perceptions and thoughts captured in remarkably clean and composed prose. Lovers of self-investing
literary fiction will find much to contemplate."
"The story hinges on Vera, her perspectives, her thoughts--ugliness, pettiness, beauty, intelligence--her journey as a person who ultimately is like the rest of us; trying to figure out what life can be and how to make that vision a reality. Roy's prose is lyrical and beautiful--some
passages are heartbreaking in their truth and honesty. Poetic without being oversaturated with excessive lyricism, the writing is introspective and explorative, while the subtlety and beauty of
language transform this book into something more; a study in humanity and the ebbs and flows of human emotions and doubt, and the trappings of memory."

Barbara Leigh Bodichon: A Biography (2024)
You have probably not heard of Barbara Leigh Smith Bodichon but you certainly should have done.
Name any 'modern' human rights movement, and she was a pioneer: feminism, equal opportunities, diversity, inclusion, mental health awareness, Black Lives Matter. While her name has been omitted from too many history books, it was Barbara that opened the doors for more famous names to walk through. And her influence owed as much to who she was as to what she did: people loved her for her robust sense of humour, cheerfulness and indiscriminate acts of kindness.
This is a celebration of the life of the founder of Britain's suffrage movement: campaigner for equal opportunity in the workplace, the law, at home and beyond. Co-founder of Girton, the first university college for women, a committed activist for human rights, fervently anti-slavery, she was also one of Victorian England's finest female painters.
Jane Robinson's brilliant new book shines a light on a remarkable woman who lived on her own terms and to whom we owe a huge debt.
Josephine Butler. A Brief History (2022)
When Josephine Butler died in 1906, she was declared by Millicent Fawcett to have been 'the most distinguished Englishwoman of the 19th century'. With impassioned speeches and fiery writing, Butler's campaigns for women's rights, and against the iniquity of double sexual standards, shook Victorian society to its core and ignited a force for change that has shaped modern Britain. But how did the physically frail wife of a schoolmaster become a leading social reformer, with a vibrant legacy that continues to affect our lives to this day?
"The story of a woman who defied what was expected of her to make a difference - told in a wonderfully engaging way" Helen Pankhurst.
Ladies can't climb ladders
The pioneering adventures of the first professional women. (2020)
Described by critics as 'cracking', 'stirring' and 'a celebration', this book focuses on the lives of pioneering women forging careers in the fields of medicine, law, academia, architecture, engineering and the church. In a startling study into the public and private worlds of these unsung heroines, I shed light on their desires and ambitions, and how family and society responded to this emerging class of spirited working women.
Hearts and Minds.
The Untold Story of the Great Pilgrimage and How Women Won the Vote. (2018)
1913: the last long summer before the war. The country is gripped by suffragette fever. Some admire these impassioned crusaders; others are aghast at the thought of giving any female a vote. Meanwhile, hundreds of women are stepping out on to the streets of Britain. They are suffragists: non-militant campaigners for the vote, on an astonishing six-week protest march they call the Great Pilgrimage. Rich and poor, young and old, they defy convention, risking jobs, family relationships and even their lives to persuade the country to listen to them. The Great Pilgrimage transformed the personal and political lives of women in Britain for ever.
'A story of huge courage and, most of all, immense female camaraderie... meticulously researched... a fascinating and inspiring read.'
In the Family Way.
Illegitimacy Between the Great War and the Swinging Sixties. (2015)
Few of us today appreciate or understand the shame that an illegitimate child once brought on families - unmarried mothers were believed immoral, single fathers feckless, and their children were often treated as outcasts. Between the First World War and the end of the Sixties, tens of thousands of children were taken into care or transported across the world, while some mothers were committed to asylums or workhouses. I've gathered the experiences of many to tell their tales, which often start in tragedy but end in hope, as those affected overcome desperate beginnings to become beacons of courage, endurance and survival.
'Riveting. Part of the book's charm is its subtle interweaving of personal accounts with historical analysis.' 'Engaging and incredibly moving.'
A Force to be Reckoned With.
A History of the Women’s Institute. (2011)
Everyone knows three things about the WI: that they spent the war making jam; some of their members were those sensational Calendar Girls; and that slow hand-clapping of Tony Blair. But there's so much more to this remarkable movement. Founded in Britain in 1915, it counted among its members suffragettes, academics and social crusaders who discovered the heady power of sisterhood, changing women's lives and their world in the process.
'Consistently entertaining... Lively, informative and pleasingly disconcerting in the way it dispels the corny image of jam-making grannies.'
The Remarkable Story of the First Women to Fight for an Education. (2009)
BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week
At the end of the 19th century, when the female brain was considered 5 ounces lighter than the male brain, 5 women bravely enrolled at university for the first time in Britain. From widely different backgrounds and with only a passion for learning in common, they faced dismissal as mere 'bonnets' and wild rioting when a vote was taken to offer these 'undergraduettes' a recognized degree. Through the inspiring and moving words of the women themselves, I explore the sacrifices they made, the prejudice they met, and the determination, friendship and knowledge they found through their ground-breaking, hard-won educations.
'Fascinating. Inspiring. Impassioned and wonderfully entertaining.' 'Social history of the best kind. A gem of a book.'
The Charismatic Black Nurse Who Became a Heroine of the Crimea. (2005)
The Times called her a heroine, Florence Nightingale called her a brothel-keeping quack, and Queen Victoria's nephew called her simply Mother - Mary Seacole was one of the most eccentric and charismatic women of her day. For more than a century after her death this remarkable woman was all but forgotten. This, the first full-length biography of a Victorian voted the greatest black Briton in history, brings Mary centre stage at last.
'Robinson does not pull Mary Seacole off her pedestal or expose her feet of clay. Instead she escorts us on Seacole's many adventures and lets us feel her warm and loving heart.'
The Secret History of Enterprising Women (published in the US as ‘Women Out of Bounds’). (2002)
Throughout history there has been a significant minority of women who sidestepped conventional restraint and raised the eyebrows of their contemporaries, choosing to make an unusually independent way through life. This book is the enthralling story, rich with anecdotes and first-hand testimonies, of just some of them, as they struggled and succeeded in many fields thought to be the exclusive province of men... including a naval commander in the Persian Wars, a Dark-Age Pope, a successful Orcadian wind-seller, some pirates and a Royal Marine, and a stockbroker who ran for President of the United States.
Parrot Pie for Breakfast.
An Anthology of Women Pioneers. (1999)
There is nothing quite like parrot pie for breakfast. First one must catch one's parrot, of course, and build the hearth to bake it, but that is all in a day's work for the woman pioneer. This anthology tells the story of over 100 such women spanning 4 centuries, from the lowliest kitchen skivvy to ambassadors' wives: emigrants who explored the world in search of new and better lives. All faced challenges in their homes from home that were to test the limit of their spirits, their resourcefulness, even their survival.
Angels of Albion.
Women of the Indian Mutiny. (1996)
Serialised in The Times and BBC Radio's Woman's Hour
Using extracts from personal diaries and journals, I captured the experience of the many hundreds of British women and children caught up in the so-called Indian Mutiny of 1857. Life in India for these women was utterly transformed by the violence and turmoil of the rebellion. Suddenly they had to learn how to endure the misery of sieges, manage escapes, give birth and care for children in impossible situations, and navigate close friendships made across the Imperial divide. This is the story of a world changed for ever.
Robinson's project is to show how much more there was to these women than the stereotype suggests.... riveting reading.' ' Lively and utterly involving.'
Unsuitable for Ladies:.
An Anthology of Women Travellers. (1994)
Real ladies do not travel - or so it was once said. This collection of women's travel writing dispels that myth, with amusing and thrilling extracts which prove that there are few corners of the world not visited by lady travellers.
'Every page of this book pulses with adventure. It is totally exhilarating to hear the authentic voices of women brave enough to defy convention and tackle the globe.'
A Guide to Women Travellers. (1990)
Both anecdotal and scholarly, this book is much more than just a 'bare bones' bibliography. I explore 16 centuries of women's travel writing, ranging from the Abbess Etheria, who journeyed to the Holy Land in the 4th century, to 20th-century adventurers over land, sea and sky.

My journey to entrepreneurship has been fascinating — to me, anyway. I spent my early career in software engineering and my later career on the business side and have run or worked in essentially every job function other than finance. My journey colors my view on the best books for entrepreneurs.
I will update this article periodically with new categories and books as I continue my journey.
And, if you have a recommendation, please leave a comment; I would love to check it out.
How to think like an entrepreneur
The Great Mental Models (Volumes 1-3)
This series is a guide to understanding and using general thinking concepts in business and life. The author, Shane Parrish (of Farnam Street), walks the reader through 48 models from different fields of study, explaining how they can be applied to various situations.
Some of the topics covered include cause and effect, Bayesian inference, game theory, cognitive biases, decision trees, and more. Each chapter includes examples of how the model can be used, as well as a list of further resources for learning more about it.
How does entropy apply to your next decision? You’ll be surprised by how relevant these books are to your success.

- Publication date : October 9, 2019
This book instantly expanded my way of thinking, recognizing that I had long been stuck in the same mental patterns which led to succeeding and failing in the same ways over and over again.
This book is short, don’t skip anything. Key lessons for me here had to do with:
- Second order thinking. What happens if you do X, Y, or Z? It’s easy to think about the direct impact, but what happens as a result of the direct impacts?
- Inversion. Okay, I did use this model, but powerful nonetheless. Some of us solve problems in one direction, from where we are to where we want to get to. Flip it around and work back from your goal to where you are now, it’s a powerful way of thinking through solutions, or even just validating your plan that you worked through in a forward direction.
- Occam’s Razor. I began my work life as an engineer and learned this quickly. Go for the simplest solution, don’t overcomplicate.
- Hanlon’s Razor. Assume best intentions. When someone does something wrong, or does something that offends you, recognize that it was most likely a result of an innocent mistake or lack of knowledge. The vast majority of people are not out to get you.

Publication Date : December 1, 2019
This version draws insights from across these fields of science. While many of the rules of science are regularly covered in business books (e.g., Reciprocity, Leverage, Niches, Incentives), others will open your eyes and mind. If you only scan the book spend time on these topics:
- Tendency to Minimize Energy Output
Really important topics for new Entrepreneurs..

- Publication Date : September 14, 2021
This volume of the Great Mental Models series digs into systems thinking and mathematics, showing you how to understand and leverage complex concepts for your advantage. You’ll learn about feedback loops, chaos theory, fractals, and more—all with real-world examples that will help make these abstract concepts concrete.
Meditations by Marcus Aurelius
- Publisher : Amazon Classics (June 25, 2019)
- Publication date : June 25, 2019
Amazon says: “The best introduction to Stoicism remains Epictetus’s The Enchiridion. But for a fuller understanding of the philosophy, readers cannot do better than Marcus Aurelius’s Meditations. In Meditations, the emperor of Rome records his
thoughts and reflections on Stoic doctrine, providing a comprehensive guide to the ethics of this school of philosophy.”
How to serve your customer like an Entrepreneur
They Ask, You Answer: A Revolutionary Approach to Inbound Sales, Content Marketing, and Today’s Digital Consumer
- Publisher : Wiley; 2nd edition
- Publication Date : August 6, 2019
In this book, Marcus Sheridan reminds us how important it is to simply put the customer’s needs first. The philosophy is simple: If your customer asks you a question, answer it, then go write a long blog post about it which will help anyone else with the question find the answer.
This approach does three things:
- Helps you scale. If customers can find the answers without asking you, you can spend more time helping them solve their individual challenges.
- Generates leads. If you can rank these posts, people will find you. The Hubspot Inbound Marketing model at it’s finest.
- Positions you as an expert on the topic — and people like to work with experts.
Sheridan goes through the approach in great detail. Read it and keep coming back to this book.

Not far into our future, the dazzling technology that runs our world turns against us. Controlled by a childlike—yet massively powerful—artificial intelligence known as Archos, the global network of machines on which our world has grown dependent suddenly becomes an implacable, deadly foe. At Zero Hour—the moment the robots attack—the human race is almost annihilated, but as its scattered remnants regroup, humanity for the first time unites in a determined effort to fight back. This is the oral history of that conflict, told by an international cast of survivors who experienced this long and bloody confrontation with the machines. Brilliantly conceived and amazingly detailed, Robopocalypse is an action-packed epic with chilling implications about the real technology that surrounds us.

Kannada poetry is poetry written in the Kannada language spoken in Karnataka. Karnataka is the land that gave birth to eight Jnanapeeth award winners,
the highest honour bestowed for Indian literature. From the period of Adikavi Pampa, who proclaimed his wish to be reborn as a little bee in the land of
Kannada, Kannada poetry has come a long way to Kuvempu and Dattatreya Ramachandra Bendre.
Puttappa ( Kuvempu )
( 1904 - 1994 ), Born in
Hirekodige, Koppa taluk,
Dattatreya Ramachandra Bendre
( Ambikatanayadatta )
( 1896 - 1981 ),
Born in Dharwad,
B M Srikanthaiah
( 1884 - 1946 )
Born in Turuvekere,
Kota Shivaram Karanth
( 1902–1997 )
Born in Saligrama,
Pre History :
Kannada poetry has been traced back to around 5th century A.D, though none of those early works have been found. The earliest extant poetry in tripadi meter
are the Kappe Arabhatta records of 700 C.E. The first well known Kannada poet was Adikavi Pampa who wrote in an archaic style of Kannada called
Halegannada (literally "Old Kannada"). His Vikramarjuna Vijaya is hailed as a classic even to this day. With this and his other important work Adipurana he set a
trend of poetic excellence for the Kannada poets of the future.
Kannada poetry called vachanas, were pithy comments on that period's social, religious and economic conditions. More importantly, they hold a mirror to the
seed of a social revolution, which caused a radical re-examination of the ideas of caste, creed and religion. One of the important ideas coming out of this
revolution was the view that Work is worship and a path to spirituality.
Kannada poets have the unique distinction of sowing the seeds of one of the richest forms of classical music: South Indian Carnatic music. The Dasas or saints,
around 15th century, sang the glory of God through poems.
Navodaya literally means a new birth. This indeed was the reincarnation of Kannada poetry which was dormant for quite a few centuries in the face of British
occupation of India. This period saw greats like Srikanthaiah, Kuvempu, Bendre, Shivaram Karanth writing poetry. This genre was highly influenced by Romantic
English poetry. It was B. M. Srikanthaiah who started this movement of sorts with his translation of a few critically acclaimed English poems of the Romantic
period. Many educated Kannadigas, especially those were in the teaching profession, realised that they need to express themselves in their mother tongue and
started writing poetry in Kannada.
Kuvempu is a case in point who was convinced by his professor (of British origin) that he should write in his mother tongue. Kuvempu went on to become a
Rashtrakavi (national poet). His love of nature, realisation of the greatness of man's spirit and the vision to see the blend of nature and God made him more
than Kannada's Wordsworth. Another interesting case is that of Shivaram Karanth who was a man of great intellect, rock-solid convictions and a profound social
sense. He was the Leonardo da Vinci of Karnataka.123.
Kannada poetry has won eight Jnanapeeth awards, the highest for any other Indian language.

Judy Garland – Miss Show Business
Available on backorder
1955 Studio Lp Incl.'Over the Rainbow' + 2 Bonus Tracks
This is some of Garland’s finest work and shows a legendary talent at her best in a variety of song styles. If you haven’t experienced Judy Garland, you’ll be amazed at the simultaneous power, softness, and even vulnerability in her voice, all displayed at the same time on many tracks such as, of course, ‘Over The Rainbow.’ This album captures the songs of her career, and the careers of so many great stage singers from vaudeville and beyond. Definitely one of her best recordings available, especially on vinyl.

Hinduism signifies the Sanatana Dharma –the eternal law, the perennial or the timeless order. The word Hinduism is depicted of Hindu. It implies generally a geographic, ethnic or cultural identifier for people living in the Subcontinent of India –around or beyond river Indus, Sindhu.
Hindus, inhabitants of Hindustan –Bharat are since time immemorial the followers of the way of life guided by the Vedas and Vedic treatises. The Vedas (four in number, i.e., the Rigveda, the Yajurveda, the Samaveda and the Atharvaveda) are the chief elaborators of the Sanatana Dharma.
Further, the Vedas call each and everyone to realize the reality of universal unity. They, declaring universal unity to be the fundamental basis of equality among all, urge human beings for carrying out day-to-day activities at all levels. They guide for large-scaled co-operation, co-ordination and harmony among fellow beings to pave the way for the welfare of one and all. On the basis of this, the Vedas beseech man to make his life worthy and meaningful.
Hence, the Sanatana Dharma, especially elaborated and dissected by the Vedas and other foremost Vedic texts, is an eternal order dedicated to the welfare of all. It calls everyone to become the part and parcel of large scaled co-operation, co-ordination and harmony, the essentials for realization of universal unity –to reach the Satya. Thus, in short, the Sanatana Dharma is an eternal order devoted to universal unity –the Satya. It is committed to the Satya and operated by the same Satya. It is, to repeat, determined to be in compliance with the Satya, to establish equality among all and to accord welfare to everyone. As a human being is the finest and superior among all the creatures, the Sanatana Dharma, therefore, urges everyone, woman or man, to embrace the reality of equality. It calls for working for the welfare of all making it the goal of life.
Due to its dedication to the Universalism the Santana Dharma has for thousands of years left deep impression on almost all social, cultural, and more especially religio-spiritual philosophies established or developed in India. The Vedic-Hindu philosophy, the explainer and elaborator of the Santana Dharma, especially its crown scriptures –the Vedas and the Upanishads (the Vedanta) have not only impressed and led all schools of thought of the Indian origin, but they have, more or less, exerted influence on religio-spiritual, social and political philosophies developed from time-to-time the world over.
The Mantras of the First Sukta of the First Mandala of the Rigveda –the first and the foremost of the four Vedas, well depict the reality of the Sanatana Dharma. Besides the supremacy and grace of the Creator, the Protector and the Liberator –Ishwara, the universal truth related to unity, the reality of the eternal law of change, and the superiority of Ahimsa as the supreme human values can be well comprehended through these Mantras. These Mantras pave the way for the welfare of all through collective endeavours, by large-scaled co-operation and co-ordination, and harmony among fellow beings. By the use of the word ‘Ham’ –we, these hymns wish for rise of all and call each and everyone to reach the Satya –Paramatma, Who is Himself the basic source of Unity, through the development of virtues and righteous acts. These are also the foremost elements of the Santana Dharma, which after their appearance through the Mantras of the Rigveda, became since time immemorial the basis of people’s practices and their social dealings in the Aaryaavarta. They left impression on other philosophies developed all over the world along with becoming the basis of development of religio-spiritual schools of thought of the Indian origin. This reality can be well assessed from many couplets of the Dhammapada –collection of sayings of Gautama Buddha in which the Shakyamuni stresses on making life meaningful through righteous acts, and the basis of upright acts is good contemplation with sound character (to mention a few, 87/6 and 168/13), and he declares it to be the Dharma. We are well familiar with the fact that this concept of action and contemplation is a leading idea of the Vedanta in the form of a beautiful combination of Karma and Jnana. This very idea is of prime importance in Jainism as well.
Along with this, development of the spirit of kindliness towards all –Sarvasauhard, transformation of enmity prevailing in opponent to goodwill through compassion, friendliness and love, and enterprise of concord through good deeds –Satkarmas are the basic teachings of the Sanatana Dharma –the best introduction of the fundamentals of the Sanatana Dharma. The following couplet of the Dhammapada (5/1) should be comprehended in this very context:
“Na Hi Verena Veraani Sammantiidha Kudaachanam/ Averena Cha Sammanti Esa Dhammo Sanantano//”
Meaning thereby, “Hatred never ceases by hatred, hatred ceases by goodwill. This is the Sanatana Dharma” –the eternal rule.
This is just an example. We can find such kind of examples, one after the other, in all philosophies –schools of thought categorically reflecting on them the impact of the basics of the Sanatana Dharma and establishing the Sanatana Dharma as the basic Dharma, the fountainhead of all philosophies developed all over the world from time-to-time. They all, in a way or the other, bring to the notice the reality of the basic spirit of the Sanatana Dharma –being to be the eternal, its dedication to the universal unity and commitment to equality of all irrespective of any kind of discrimination.
The need of the hour is that the reality of the fundamentals of the Sanatana Dharma –the Vedic-Hindu way of life should be brought out honestly and sincerely. Moreover, the followers of the Sanatana Dharma should get familiar with the basics of the Sanatana Dharma. Keeping the vital message of universal unity as the nucleus in thoughts and actions they should tread the path of the Satya. To repeat again, equality, co-operation, co-ordination and harmony at all levels in all walks of life pave the way to the welfare of one and all and these are the prime principles of the Sanatana Dharma. One claiming to be a true Sanatanist –a follower of the Vedic-Hindu way of life inevitably needs to make these principles the essential part of his routines and mutual dealings.

The Quran and Modern Science by Dr. Maurice Bucaille, elaborates the Scientific Miracles of the Qur’an. This is the edited version by Dr. Bilal Philips published in 2010.
This booklet by Dr. Maurice Bucaille has been in circulation for the past nineteen years and has been a very effective tool in presenting Islam to non-Muslims as well as introducing Muslims to aspects of the scientific miracle of the Quran. It is based on a transcription of a lecture given by Dr. Bucaille in French.
Documentary on Dr. Maurice Bucaille’s Research.
In this reprint, I decided to improve its presentation by simplifying the language and editing the text from an oral format to a pamphlet format. There were also passing references made by the author to material in his book, The Bible, the Quran and Science, which needed explanation. I took the liberty of including explanatory portions from his book where more detail was necessary. A few footnotes were also added for clarity and a hadith which the author mentioned was replaced due to its inauthenticity. There were also some corrections made to the historical material on the compilation of the Quran.
It is my hope that these slight improvements will make this excellent work even more effective in presenting the final revelation of God to mankind.

About the Project
The “Istanbul Reminiscences” project, supported by Istanbul 2010 European Capital of Culture Agency, creates the means for claiming the memory of the cultural diversity of Istanbul. The project, which unifies the oral history/history and memories/city in Turkey, aims at drawing attention to oral history researches that attach importance to memories of ordinary people, a field that is not well established in Turkey, as well as encouraging researchers, students, teachers, history enthusiasts, and all the people of Istanbul for oral history research.
There is a different “narrative of Istanbul” in the memory of each and every Istanbulian. These narratives vary according to the place they lived, their occupations, where they came from, how they migrated, their social relations, and how they experienced Istanbul. In each narrative, it is possible to trace the social, political, cultural, and economic processes of transformation/change during the past 60-70 years in Turkey in general and in Istanbul in particular: The transition to multi-party politics, economic liberalisation of the economy and its opening to the rest of the world, the intensified and increasing migration from rural to urban areas, incidents of collective violence leading to mass migration of minorities, a rapid urbanisation, and widespread movements of urban reconstruction, etc.
The audio-visual database created as part of the Istanbul Reminiscences project, will carry the personal narratives about the historical richness and cultural diversity of the city to the future and thereby make them accessible. Thus it will provide a source of reference for the studies not only about the history of Istanbul but also about the whole country and sets the ground for the preparation of products including exhibitions, publications, and documentaries on the subject. The website first launched in December 2010 includes life stories related with Istanbul, and such narratives are being presented to the users under the themes/headings reflecting the cultural, social, economic, and physical dimensions of Istanbul.

ADNA << Back
The idea for the book Adna came from the illustrated booklet Letter to Adna (Beletrina, 2016), in which a farewell letter and the circumstances in which it is written end Adna’s never very carefree childhood. The story, told by artist Samira Kentrić primarily through pictures, is continued and built on in this work through the adult Adna, who wants the girl to be given a chance and herself describes her attitude towards the circumstances and the people who surrounded her in the past, and still do.
Adna, a girl in her early twenties, comes face to face with the memory of her refugee past. She wonders about the meaning of existence after the deaths of loved ones, but is unable to share her traumatic experience with anyone. Although she is quite fortunate that her guardian provides her with a materially and intellectually dignified life and she is seemingly well integrated into the society in which she finds herself, she remains alone. She has no problems making contacts, she does well in new circumstances, but she carefully hides who she really is from the outside world. She has control over her appearance and over her sexuality, but deep inside her there remains a locked-up pain, right up until the day her world unexpectedly starts to spin differently and forces her into opening up and stepping forward.
Samira Kentrić’s powerful images are searingly direct, relevant, and uncompromising, remaining with us long after we put the book down.
Adna’s story is universal and timeless – each one of us must overcome our own obstacles along the path to adulthood and find the strength and courage for change and a search for the meaning of existence. All that differs are the circumstances.

“I’m beginning to think chaos is underrated”; a central quote in a story about how imperfect life is, and the price some people pay in their quest to make it what it will never be; perfect.
Rachel Joyce, the British author who brought us the award winning debut novel The Unlikely Pilgrimage of HaroldFry, returns with her second novel, Perfect, published in 2013, to discuss some very profound topics, yet basing her story on a very simple premise. At the beginning of the story, in 1972, 11-year-old Byron Hemmings, is told by his highly intelligent and observant friend, James Lowe, that the government will add two seconds to time, because of some anomaly in the alignment of time with the spinning of the Earth. Just two seconds. Can two seconds change a life? Can two seconds disrupt the perfection of one’s life? Or was the perfection all but a fragile stage set waiting to be blown over to expose what was hidden?
Rachel Joyce’s novel Perfect tackles these questions and much more. She never really states these questions out loud so as not to be too preachy, and she also doesn’t force a certain answer down the reader’s throat. The ensemble of characters is not large, and all of them are consistent throughout the story and act in manners realistic enough for us to believe them.
I’ve read both her novels and although they lack some of the characteristics of more experienced authors, I still liked both books because of the subjects she tackles. Although her plots are not the strongest or most intriguing, her stories make you think about your life and that is enough to keep you reading.
Her style is soft, and her language easy, which will make for a quick read, but you’ll still be left with a lot to think about. If I were to have one comment on this book is that it shows signs of being the author’s first novel (she announced that she started writing this novel first but it wasn’t completed and published till later). Since I am trying to work on my first novel myself, I could sense the similarities between her writing and my own. It’s clear that many of her characters and also scenes in the story are based on things from her real life. For some, this maybe a signal not to pick up this book, but for me it was the great thing about this story; it was written because it is a story that the author felt the need to tell, something she needed the world to hear, and that, at least in my opinion is what writing is all about.
It’s challenging to write a review and tell the readers about the merits of the story without giving any of it away, but I’ll tell you this much; issues of obsession, mental illness, peer pressure and the stress of trying to please everyone around you are only a few of the themes in this story and the author touches on all of them nicely.
Byron and James are two central characters in Perfect and Joyce puts us inside their heads and succeeds in making them believable. Diana, Byron’s mother, is another pivotal character whom, at times, makes you feel sorry for her and at other times will irritate you; just like most people you know. Even Byron’s father, Seymour, although he doesn’t have much “stage time”, his presence is always felt and his influence in the story is far from little.
Perfect may well be the author’s actual first attempt at a novel, but it is true enough and sincere enough to make you cheer for her, and value what it means to sit down, pour part of your life and soul into a story and share it with the world. So, despite its flaws, isn’t that enough to make it, Perfect?

Flowers in The Attic was the first installment to a five book series about sole heir Corinne Foxworth who married her half uncle Christopher Foxworth. As a consequence to the incestuous union, Corinne was disinherited by her parents, Malcolm and Olivia Foxworth. Nevertheless, the union produced four seemingly perfect children – Christopher Jr., Cathy and twins Cory and Carrie. The family had then changed their last name to Dollanganger, a distant Foxworth relative. Upon the death of Christopher Sr., Corinne was forced to crawl back to her parents being unable to financially take care of the four children.
After many letters appealing to her parents, the latter finally agreed to allow Corinne and her children to live in the Foxworth mansion under one condition – no one is to know about the existence of the children. Arrangements were made for them to stay in the attic of the mansion where they remained locked up for three years as their mother made them believe that she was making efforts to get back to her father’s good graces, get herself back in his will and the children along with her would become very rich – all they had to do was wait for their grandfather to die.
In the attic where Christopher Jr. and Cathy were forced to spend all their time together, an unusually strong bond developed. They adapted the role of mother and father to the twins. They watched each other grow from children to adults, and they only had each other to answer questions that arise with the onset of puberty. As both tried to resist the temptation of surrendering to their raging hormones knowing they were brother and sister, they both eventually lost the battle and ended up sleeping together.
Grandfather Malcolm Foxworth finally died to the benefit of Corinne but not her children. She ran off and married lawyer Bart Winslow and left the children wondering when she was going back for them.
Christopher Jr. and Cathy, tired of their mother’s empty promises, devised a way to escape from the attic along with Carrie. At this point, Cory had died of pneumonia. The three children escaped from the attic and took a bus back to where they came from, with no idea where they were going back to.
PETALS ON THE WIND
After escaping from their three year confinement in the Foxworth attic, Christopher Jr., Cathy and Carrie are taken in by a rich generous doctor Paul Sheffield whose house keeper Henrietta Beech happened to be in the bus they were on.
Christopher Jr. moves on to medical school, Cathy pursues her dream to become a ballet dancer. Christopher Jr. cannot get over the feelings he developed for Cathy during their attic days. Cathy, in an attempt to escape from her brother’s longing, moves to New York to pursue her dancing career. Here she meets and marries fellow dancer Julian Marquet.
Carrie never fully recovered from her years in the attic, the deprivation of sunlight stunting her growth. Nevertheless she meets a pastor’s son who asked to marry her. She seeks out her mother Corinne to invite her to the wedding. At this point, Corinne has taken on the role of Mrs. Bart Winslow and denies having any children. Devastated by the rejection, Carrie kills herself.
Cathy vows to seek vengeance against their mother for all they suffered. Upon the death of her husband with whom she has her first son Jory, she goes after her mother’s second husband. She succeeds in getting herself pregnant with her second son Bart Winslow Sheffield.
Cathy devices a plan to present herself and her brother back in her mother’s life at a party in Foxworth Hall, after the latter has established to everyone she has no children. At the same party, Cathy announces her pregnancy with her mother’s second husband.
Unable to bare the humiliation of the present and the confrontation of the past, Corinne sets Foxworth Hall on fire. Cathy and Christopher Jr manage to escape. Bart Winslow dies in the fire attempting to save his mother in law, the already bedridden Olivia Foxworth. Corinne is taken to a psychiatric ward.
IF THERE BE THORNS
Unable to deny the feelings that continue to perpetuate, Christopher Jr and Cathy move to another state to establish a life as husband and wife under their adoptive name Sheffield, with Cathy’s sons Jory and Bart. For some years all is well and the family manages to keep the truth from discovery.
Then a mysterious woman moves in to the next door mansion. She tries to win over Bart and asks him to call her grandma – yes, Corinne Foxworth is back. She moves in next door with her butler and now third husband John Amos, her uncle and the cousin of the late Olivia Foxworth who was taken in to serve at Foxworth Hall. It turns out John Amos had his eye on the Foxworth fortune which he expected to inherit all along had Corinne not returned.
With Corinne’s reappearance, Christopher Jr and Cathy are forced to admit to their sons their true relationship as brother and sister. Jory eventually accepts them as they are. Bart continues to struggle with such acceptance for the rest of his childhood.
Disturbed by both the stories and confessions of his grandmother, Bart transforms from a shy quiet boy to a nasty and disagreeable one, an attitude he carries to adulthood. Upon learning he was a product of his mother’s revenge, he longs for a continuous reassurance of being loved. Such reassurance is long in coming as Cathy’s attention is divided between Jory, her dancing career and a newly adopted baby girl named Cindy. Bart harbors a seething resentment against everyone, particularly Jory who has more of Cathy’s attention being a budding dancer and, unlike him, being born out of love rather than revenge.
Cathy once again confronts Corinne for coming back in to their lives to wreak havoc. Corinne let’s her know she wants to make amends with her only family left. John Amos takes advantage of the unguarded confrontation between mother and daughter by knocking both of them unconscious and locking them up. Being Corinne’s husband, he has another opportunity to inherit the Foxworth fortune. Christopher Jr eventually finds his mother and sister in captivity and attempts a rescue. John Amos sets the next door mansion on fire which killed Corinne.
SEEDS Of YESTERDAY
Christopher Jr and Cathy return to Foxworth Hall.
Corinne’s will is made public and she leaves everything to her grandson Bart Winslow who has now adapted Foxworth as his last name. Under the will, Christopher Jr and Cathy are to hold Foxworth Hall and the rest of the Foxworth fortune in trust for Bart until he turns thirty-five. This is an arrangement that does not sit well with Bart as he continues to resent the relationship between his mother and his uncle. He also resents his adopted sister Cindy who he feels is feeding off the Foxworth fortune which he feels she isn’t entitled to.
Bart’s resentment for his brother Jory has also not ceased. In a dance number arranged for Bart’s birthday party, Jory suffers an accident that leaves him paralyzed from the waste down. Melodie, pregnant with Jory’s twins, is unable to accept this and leaves for good shortly after giving birth. Though devastated by his paralysis and Melodie’s abandonment, he eventually moves on to marry his caregiver.
Bart’s antagonistic attitude towards his family eventually led them to decide to leave Foxworth Hall. On the day they were about to leave, Christopher Jr dies in a car accident. This twist of fate changed Bart’s attitude and made him more bearable to be with. The family ended up staying and amends were made between Bart, Jory and Cindy. Cathy died peacefully in her sleep – in the same attic where she spent three growing up years.
GARDEN OF SHADOWS
The final installment to the Foxworth saga drops a new bomb to the already explosive series of events. This last book is a narration from Olivia Foxworth, intended as a justification for her actions, from beating up Corinne and showing her children the torturous scars, to locking up her four grandchildren and refusing to acknowledge them as her grandchildren and calling them the devil’s spawn to their faces.
It turns out Olivia is really not Corinne’s mother.
This last book explains how Malcolm Foxworth ended up marrying Olivia. It depicts a sad story of a smart but ugly duckling who was just too grateful to be rescued from spinsterhood to see through the rotten character that Malcolm Foxworth truly was. While Malcolm and Olivia lived as husband and wife in Foxworth Hall, Malcolm’s father Garland Christopher came home to live with them, bringing with him his new and pregnant wife Alicia who was decades younger. Soon after their moving in to Foxworth Hall, Alicia delivers and their baby take on Garland’s middle name, Christopher.
Malcolm forces himself on Alicia. After Garland’s death, Alicia finds herself pregnant with Malcolm’s child. Not wanting the public to discover his crime, Malcolm conspires with Olivia who devices the plan of hiding Alicia in the attic until she delivers, Olivia will simultaneously pretend to be pregnant, then pass off Alicia’s baby as her own. Upon the maneuverings of Olivia, Alicia is compelled to cooperate, gives birth to a female child to become Corinne Foxworth, then disappears into oblivion with her son Christopher.
Decades later from Alicia’s death bed, a letter arrives at Foxworth Hall requesting Malcolm and Olivia to take in Christopher and continue the role of parenthood Alicia can no longer play. Malcolm and Olivia oblige in an attempt to correct what they did wrong. What they failed to anticipate was that Christopher and Corinne would end up falling in love, without regard to the fact that he was her half uncle.
As this last book reveals, Corinne not only married her half uncle. She unknowingly married her half brother – the father of her four children.


Bestselling nonfiction author and The New Yorker staff writer Susan Orlean talks to us about the fascinating life of the iconic screen star, Rin Tin Tin.
Rin Tin Tin went from being an abandoned puppy in a bombed-out dog kennel to being one of the best-recognized and best-loved dogs in recent history. His owner Lee Duncan devoted his life to showing the world the fantastic stunts his dog could do, including jumping 12-foot fences and climbing trees. Rin Tin Tin became "The Wonder Dog" and a star of the silver (and later, television) screen.
Susan's new book, Rin Tin Tin: The Life and the Legend, is not merely a biography of the dogs that took on the mantle of Rin Tin Tin, but an exploration of what our relationships with dogs have to come mean in the past hundred years.
