Trishuldhari - Devo Aur Asuro Ki Kahaniyan: त्रिशूलधारी: देवों और असुरो की कहानियाँ
by Satyam Srivastavaदेवों और असुरों की एक ऐसी कहानी, जिसमें ध्रुव-लोक नाम के मिथिकीय देश में भगवान् शिव का त्रिशूल रखा है, जिसे सदियों से कोई भी धारण नहीं कर सका है। भविष्यवाणी, शपथ, वरदान और अभिशाप के साथ न्याय, कर्तव्य और प्रेम के बीच एक साहसिक युद्ध की परिस्थितियाँ बन चुकी हैं। शक्तिशाली त्रिशूल को किसने धारण किया? अवश्यंभावी युद्ध में भगवान् विष्णु किसका पक्ष लेंगे? क्या एक सदाचारी अपनी शपथ का पालन करने के लिए अधर्म करेगा? क्या एक निम्नवर्गीय छात्र के साथ अन्याय होगा? क्या एक राजा अपने पुत्र-प्रेम में बँध जाएगा? धर्म का पालन कौन करता है और कौन डगमगा जाता है? एक युद्ध-कथा इस विषय पर कि मनुष्य होने का अर्थ कया होता है! प्रस्तुत पुस्तक आपको इस महागाथा के मूल तक ले जाती है। देवों और असुरों की सेनाएँ अपनी शक्तियों का प्रदर्शन करने के लिए आमने-सामने खड़ी हैं। सभी के प्रारब्ध आपस में टकराने वाले हैं और एक भीषण संग्राम छिड़ने वाला है।

Triumph of the Sparrow: Zen Poems
by Shinkichi Takahashi“You need know nothing of Zen to become immersed in his work. You will inevitably know something of Zen when you emerge” (Jim Harrison, American Poetry Review). Shinkichi Takahashi is one of the truly great figures in world poetry. In the classic Zen tradition of economy, disciplined attention, and subtlety, Takahashi lucidly captures that which is contemporary in its problems and experiences, yet classic in its quest for unity with the Absolute. Lucien Stryk, Takahashi’s fellow poet and close friend, here presents Takahashi’s complete body of Zen poems in an English translation that conveys the grace and power of Takahashi’s superb art. “A first-rate poet . . . [Takahashi] springs out of some crack between ordinary worlds: that is, there is some genuine madness of the sort striven for in Zen.” —Robert Bly

Trivialization and Public Opinion: Slogans, Substance, and Styles of Thought in the Age of Complexity
by Oldrich Bubak Henry JacekCentering on public discourse and its fundamental lapses, this book takes a unique look at key barriers to social and political advancement in the information age. Public discourse is replete with confident, easy to manage claims, intuitions, and other shortcuts; outstanding of these is trivialization, the trend to distill multifaceted dilemmas to binary choices, neglect the big picture, gloss over alternatives, or filter reality through a lens of convenience—leaving little room for nuance and hence debate. Far from superficial, such lapses are symptoms of deeper, intrinsically connected shortcomings inviting further attention. Focusing primarily on industrialized democracies, the authors take their readers on a transdisciplinary journey into the world of trivialization, engaging as they do so the intricate issues borne of a modern environment both enabled and constrained by technology. Ultimately, the authors elaborate upon the emerging counterweights to conventional worldviews and the paradigmatic alternatives that promise to help open new avenues for progress.

Tropic of Squalor: Poems
by Mary KarrA new volume of poetry from the New York Times bestselling and esteemed author of The Liar’s Club and Lit.Long before she earned accolades for her genre-defining memoirs, Mary Karr was winning poetry prizes. Now the beloved author returns with a collection of bracing poems as visceral and deeply felt and hilarious as her memoirs. In Tropic of Squalor, Karr dares to address the numinous—that mystery some of us hope towards in secret, or maybe dare to pray to. The "squalor" of meaninglessness that every thoughtful person wrestles with sits at the core of human suffering, and Karr renders it with power—illness, death, love’s agonized disappointments. Her brazen verse calls us out of our psychic swamplands and into that hard-won awareness of the divine hiding in the small moments that make us human. In a single poem she can generate tears, horror, empathy, laughter, and peace. She never preaches. But whether you’re an adamant atheist, a pilgrim, or skeptically curious, these poems will urge you to find an inner light in the most baffling hours of darkness.
