It is like to trying to guess an elephant while peeking through a tiny window. Not because I think India has not changed, but because I think trend-watchers like him tend to miss the whole picture. Although I liked knowing that a technology manager such as my boss was plugged into the new image of India, I don't agree with his view. The implication was that India has changed so much in recent years that any book written over a decade ago must be passe. This book was written in the late 1980s by Elisabeth Bumiller who is now a reporter for the New York Times. ![]() "Irreverent and spiritual" is not an oxymoron! These are words that best describe this book.Ī few months back my boss saw me reading May You Be the Mother of a Hundred Sons during my lunch break. ![]() ![]() The prize of the month-long contest is powerful enough to change history, and Kaderin will do anything to win it for her sisters.

Centuries ago, Sebastian Wroth was turned into a vampire-a nightmare in his mind-against his will. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() When we view Earth from far away, we see a "Pale Blue Dot" and it is this vision, Sagan believes, that should impress upon us how meaningless we are, how little we matter and how pathetic our fights are. Sagan's man is fallen, although the stars hold the promise of human unity and redemption. He sees men, as do many in Western religions, as arrogant but foolish, and as beings who consider themselves strong and noble but are in reality weak and petty. ![]() ![]() They see themselves as the center of the universe and think that their conflicts are all-important and worthy of their total devotion. First, Sagan points out that humans seem born with a certain self-importance. The first four chapters outline Saganic theology. In fact, the book's subtitle is "A Vision of the Human Future in Space" and in fact, it is just that. However, Sagan has a broader aim, for Pale Blue Dot is arguably a work of post-Christian Western theology. Indeed, many chapters of Pale Blue Dot focus on the geology of the planets in the Solar System, how to travel to Mars, the history of the Voyager probes, and so on. Pale Blue Dot may initially appear to concern space and space travel it is, after all, written by the famous astronomer and popular science writer Carl Sagan. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Along the way, he was the editor of New Caribbean Poetry: An Anthology and the Heinemann Caribbean Writers Series.

He studied English at the University of the West Indies and then in Manchester, where he obtained a master’s in creative writing. More recently, he completed a Ph.D. Then I discovered that Miller is also a short-story writer, novelist, and essayist who has been winning prizes since he began publishing eight years earlier. And he’s been impressively prolific. The judges praised Miller’s ability to “defy expectations” and “set up oppositions only to undermine them,” commending the book’s “boldness and wit.” The Cartographer was his fourth collection. The book imagines a dialogue between a map-maker, a rationalist trying to impose order on an unknown land, and a Rastafarian-or Rastaman-who questions his project, offering a different way of understanding the world. ![]() I first heard of him when his 2014 poetry collection, The Cartographer Tries to Map a Way to Zion, won England’s prestigious Forward Prize for Poetry. A version of this conversation was broadcast on Writers & Company on CBC Radio One, produced by Sandra Rabinovitch. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() What eighteen year old Mac Thorne doesn’t know will probably kill her. ![]() It seems, perhaps, becoming a grim reaper isn’t just about the dead but more about a much needed shift in Quincy’s priorities-from who she thinks she wants to be to who she really is. Instead of maintaining her coveted popularity status, Quincy’s goes down like the Titanic. Like when she’s reassuring her friends she wants nothing to do with former best friend Ben Moorland, who’s returned from god-knows-where, and fails. It doesn’t take long for Quincy to realize the only way out of the game is to play along especially since Death can find her anyway, anywhere, anytime.

Man-Eaters is brilliant and deserves attention on its own. I can’t talk about Chelsea Cain and Man-Eaters without talking about the way she’s been forked over twice by Marvel, but we’ll get there.
