        Der Klang der Sehnsucht

        Roman

        by Manisha Amin, Ursula Gräfe

        Die Straßen von Hastinapur sind Kalus Zuhause. Der Junge arbeitet hart für ein paar Rupien und einen einfachen Schlafplatz auf dem Boden eines Tabakladens. Dennoch ist er glücklich: Wenn er Zeit mit seinen Freunden verbringt oder er sich in die schattigen Äste des großen Banyanbaumes am Fluß zurückzieht, um den Sonnenuntergang zu beobachten – und um Flöte zu spielen. Seine Melodien verzaubern die Welt und lassen ihn alles vergessen Als sich Kalu eines Tages die Chance seines Lebens bietet, muß er Hastinapur verlassen – und damit auch seine geliebte Freundin Malti. Er verspricht, zu ihr zurückzukommen. Doch kann es eine gemeinsame Zukunft geben? 'Der Klang der Sehnsucht' ist ein ergreifender Roman über die Macht der Musik und die alles überdauernde Kraft der Freundschaft.

        Air pollution has become a major global issue due to rapid industrialization, human population growth and increasing urbanization. The various sources of atmospheric pollutants, both those created by human activity and those from natural physical and biological processes, have become the focus of much scientific research and analysis. An understanding of how these many pollutants are affecting air quality is essential in order to design strategies to mitigate them. Written by a team of international experts, this book aims to provide a broad overview of the issues surrounding air pollution and how to control and monitor pollution levels. Beginning with a brief background on the subject, the book moves on to discuss global emissions, with an emphasis on megacities and their effects. Possible pollution control measures and methods of air pollution measurement and modelling are also explored. The book ends with descriptions of the various indices used for assessing air quality with a focus on human health impacts, and a discussion on policy making to control air pollution. The book will be useful to students of environmental science and atmospheric science, as well as environmental consultants and researchers interested in air quality . Key Features: Comprehensive introduction to the primary causes of air pollution today with an emphasis on growing urban populations and megacities Discusses both anthropogenic and biogenic emissions and their effects on human health and the environment Gives an overview of indices used today for assessing air quality and describes current methods for air pollution monitoring and modelling Discusses new technologies for mitigating the effects of air pollution and policy making for implementation of controls

      • Mallika

        by Manisha Kulshreshtha

        A multi layered novel, which bears universal testimony to the oft spoken proverb, "Behind every successful man is a woman." And as ever so often happens, the woman remains in the shadows. Mallika is the story of one such unacknowledged woman, who was the muse to Bhartendu Harishchandra, who is hailed as the father of modern Hindi literature. While there are several books documenting his life, there is only a passing mention to Mallika in them. Based on the scattered references to Mallika found in literature, the renowned Hindi author, Manisha Kulshreshtha, has skillfully woven together facts and imagination to create the unforgettable character of Mal ka, who many claim was not only the muse but the actual author of several works credited to Bhartendu Harishchandra.

        Tanpura's Strum

        A Collection of Haiku, Tanka, and Micropoems

        by Jesal Kanani

        Jesal has always been drawn to making beautiful connections with seemingly disparate ideas. She's been able to draw out the juxtaposition of two unrelated images in a haiku, giving birth to a new meaning, which combines two distinct thoughts into one. If we look at urban existence – its natural state of being is fraught with dissonance: the push and pull of expectations, the contradictions within roles, but Jesal sees connections and synergy with this seeming contradiction thru the haiku and tanka  which reach out as perfect forms to Jesal, to express this state of modern living.   Both — arising out of and also nestled within, this constant churn and thrum of life are nectar-like moments that make us feel most alive, impassioned, at other times crushingly human. This poetry is an attempt to catch those pearls of consciousness, those moments that float up to the surface above the rough raw tumble of the day. Maybe it is the ordinary, that when looked at with repose, reflection transmutes into something extraordinary? The tanka’s brevity: a click, ka—snick! is a snapshot in words. A wide ranging collage, from motherhood, heartbreak, loss, love, to the tangible: vegetables, beaches, forests and salons, is put together in this collection through these textual snapshots. Read together, they aim to paint a dense picture of urban life of women, as they grapple with successfully navigating the world.    By saying little, sharing just the silhouettes of an image, Jesal's haiku and tanka, invite the readers to color in the rest with their own experiences and imagination, thereby making these poetic forms unusually relatable. I hope the grace and beauty of these ancient forms of poetry find resonance with you and readers through this modern, relatable and excellent rendition, by Jesal.
