Lysistrata — Lysistrata

₹120

Aristophanes, a native Athenian and the leading exponent of Greek comedy, was born c. 450 BCE. Today forty-three of his plays are known by title; eleven survive. The most famous of these is the whimsical fantasy Lysistrata.A perennial classroom and stage favorite as well as the basis of Spike Lee's Chi-Raq, the play is as relevant today as it was 2,500 years ago. The premise is simplicity itself: to end the Peloponnesian War, women decide to withhold sex from their husbands until the fighting stops.The play is by turns raucous, bawdy, frantic, and funny. David Mulroy's exciting new translation retains the original's verse format, racy jokes, and vibrancy-setting it apart from previous efforts, which are typically reproduced as prose or depart from meaning and meter. His introduction offers a concise summary of Aristophanes' life and social milieu, including a brief overview of the Peloponnesian War, which took place during the playwright's lifetime. The appendices include guides on translating meter and Greek pronunciation for aspiring thespians.

The Constant Star by Jessica Stirling — The Constant Star by Jessica Stirling

₹159

World War II hits home to a scattered London family in new and unexpected ways in Jessica Stirling's stirring third novel about Britain under siege. Susan Cahill enjoys her job at the BBC until a bomb destroys the building and brings unwelcome responsibilities and an autocratic new boss, Walter Boscombe. He has no time for ambitious young women from Shadwell and seems determined to break Susan's spirit—and her heart. Breda Hooper, Susan's widowed sister-in-law, and her small son are rescued from London's shattered docklands by Danny, Susan's estranged husband. Settled in a shabby caravan in small town Evesham, Breda soon finds herself entangled in village affairs in more ways than one, with only her quick wits, her new friends, and the ever dependable Danny to keep her out of trouble. For Susan and Breda jeopardy comes not from the skies but in the terrible price each must pay for falling in love with men who are not all what they seem to be and who, even in the midst of all out war, will change their lives forever.

They often say that there are three perspectives to everything; one that is yours, one that is mine, and one that is the absolute perspective. This book offers you what I like to call the fourth perspective. Through the hidden virtues of these silent inanimate objects that you see around yourself almost everyday, there is an undying sense of solace or a sweet solution waiting to be tapped into in each of them. The culmination of the fourth perspective will ultimately lie in your thoughts that you will pen down on these very pages of my book, and little do you know they might just be your saviours in disguise. So why don’t you tell me your fourth perspective, while I tell you mine?
