Honor umrigar7/2/2023 Umrigar, an English professor at Case Western Reserve University, has set several of her past novels in this tumultuous India, investigating fraught social issues such as caste and class divides, the lure of fundamentalism and culture clash. It's the unseemly side of the country, blighted by cultural conservatism, poverty, sectarian violence, caste hierarchies and misogyny. This isn't the globalized India of news or the India of IT excellence and an ambitious space mission. It's a searing meditation on the meaning of dignity in a dehumanizing world. Thrity Umrigar's important new novel Honor isn't an easy read.įrom depictions of casual misogyny to distressing scenes of public shaming, mistreatment and torture, the novel shows the terrifying social forces that strip vulnerable people of dignity and render them animal-like. Then, when’s that shattered by reality, he must come to terms with his status as an official quadriplegic, which represents a “brutal downgrading of future hopes.” Meanwhile, the final stage of acceptance is infused with a deep sense of self-awareness-or, more accurately, awareness of an immutable loss of self. With heartbreaking candor, Bauby describes the stages of grief for his former life. This is the fate that befell Jean-Dominique Bauby, then editor of French Elle, who suffered a massive stroke at the age of 44 that left him with a rare condition called locked-in syndrome - so named because the body is rendered immobile while the mind remains perfectly functional.

Here, we find four of them published in book form, with Armstrong's royalties going to charity. Apparently, fans over at Armstrong's vibrant and busy home on the web have been very keen on getting some backstory on the guys though, and Armstrong duly obliged with some short stories and extra chapters which she shared with them online.

Wild Swans by Jung Chang7/1/2023 Wild Swans: Three Daughters of China is a tale of extraordinary cruelty and bravery, of death and survival. Her parents were denounced and tortured, and she herself was exiled to the edge of the Himalayas. Jung Chang, their daughter, was raised in the privileged circles of China’s Communist elite, but was to take the unimaginable step of questioning Mao himself. Following the Communist victory in 1949 she and her husband became senior officials. That daughter grew up to become active in the Communist movement during the civil war against the Kuomintang. As the general lay dying, she fled with her infant daughter. Jung Chang’s grandmother’s feet were bound as a child, and she was given to a warlord general as a concubine. Through the story of three generations of women in her own family – grandmother, mother and daughter – Jung Chang reveals the whole tragic history of China’s twentieth century. Since its first publication it has been published in 37 languages and sold more than 13 million copies (while still banned in mainland China). Few books have ever had such an impact as Wild Swans: Three Daughters of China. |
