Soft cover. Condition: New. PARISMITA SINGH S DEEPLY OBSERVED STORIES ABOUT LIFE IN THE MIDST OF, AND IN THE AFTERMATH OF, CONFLICT ARE AS AFFECTING AS THEY ARE ILLUMINATING. When violence has seeped into the very soil and water of a place, the peace that follows is poisoned too. And everywhere, stories rise to the surface. In the uneasy, purgatory-like time of ceasefire, there is a sense of renewed optimism. An old man recalls the dream romance of Rwmaii and Sylvia, interrupted by her marriage to a militant. A journalist doesn t know what to do with a murder story that could have been a scoop. A mysterious gun-flute man maintains both peace and terror. An unlikely acquaintance walks Sultana home through an undeclared curfew. In Parismita Singh s luminous, haunting stories of these years of imminent peace, the rivers, forests, villages, and the many cultures of a small place Rabha, Bodo, Santhal, Nepali, Koch-Rajbongshi, Muslim come blazingly alive. To read these stories is to rewire our ideas of war, resolution, and the lives that are lived in between.

Add to basketHardback. Condition: New. Though the northeastern region of India contains eight ethnically diverse, politically complex, and historically different states, it is often homogenized into a problematic category called "the northeast." Many stereotype it as a region of conflict clouding India's periphery. The diversity of the region, its rich histories, its many literatures, and its women-who run businesses, fight for peace, and battle their men as rights-bearers-all of these admirable elements of the region tend to disappear in the face of such stereotyping. Centrepiece brings together twenty-one women from across the northeastern states of India to reflect on the personal nature and meanings of work through their own words and pictures. Whether they are brewing beer, carrying cow dung on their heads, or selling food in the streets, these women confront, love, reject, and laugh at their men in myriad ways. Visually stunning, with full-color images, Centrepiece illustrates how traditional tribal art and modern sensibilities can intersect to create a new visual language for these women to share untold stories. They tell their tales here with both gravity and joy, bringing alive their cultures and showing us how to see a fresh perspective of this region and its people.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. This book brings you a wealth of stories, in words and images, from a part of India known as the Northeast, a term that is widely contested for the ways in which it homogenizes a region of great diversity. It is also a term that has come to be a marker of identity and solidarity by many who are of the region. Here, 21 writers and artists look at the idea of 'work' - from street hawking to beer brewing, from mothering to dung collection - and describe their lives or those of others with humour and compassion. Parismita Singh's wonderful compilation of the works of women asks: what are the different ways of telling a story? What if we were to attempt these tellings through poetry and portraits and essays, older traditions like textile art and applique and new genres like hashtag poetry tapped into a smartphone? Where would it take us, what would the world look like?
