The Originals The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli - Om BooksAbout the Book :"Everyone sees what you appear to be, few experience what you really are. Niccolò Machiavelli wrote The Prince—a book on the ruthless acquisition of power and governance of the State—with the intention of appeasing Lorenzo de’ Medici, the ruler of Florence, in the hope of resuscitating his political career. Often referred to as Machiavelli’s ‘job application’ in disguise, The Prince foregrounded the contrasting aspects of virtue and vice: virtue is not always an admirable trait and vice is not always detrimental to society. He presented an ‘unsentimental’ analysis of human behaviour and justified acts of immorality, deceit and deviousness to control a State. Written in 1513, shortly after Machiavelli was exiled from Florence, The Prince was posthumously published in 1532. Prohibited by the Court of Rome, The Prince was also banned by the Catholic Church. By early 1600s, William Shakespeare used ‘Machiavel’ as a term to describe an unscrupulous, devious and scheming person in his works. Even today, ‘Machiavellian’ means everything evil."About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 128 Genre/Categories : Classic Fiction Size(W x H) MM : 129 x 198 Author : Niccolo Machiavelli Language : English Publish Date : 11Sep2018 Legal Disclaimer: Product images are for illustrative purposes only.

The Originals Thus Spake Zarathustra by Friedrich Nietzsche - Om BooksAbout the Book :The lonely one offers his hand too quickly to whomever he encounters.Thus Spake Zarathustra by German thinker and writer Friedrich Nietzsche is a path-breaking philosophical novel, crafted in four parts. It features the fictitious travels and speeches of Zarathustra – whose namesake is the founder of Zoroastrianism. Nietzsche creates his own version of Zarathustra in the book, overturning accepted conventions and questioning traditional notions of morality.The first three parts of this seminal work were first published separately, and later published in a single volume in 1887. The fourth part remained inaccessible to the public at large after Nietzsche wrote it in 1885. It was in March 1892 that the four parts were printed as a single volume. The four parts delve into concepts such as the ‘eternal recurrence of the same,’ the parable on the ‘death of God,’ morality, and the ‘prophecy’ of the Übermensch. Thus Spake Zarathustra is considered to be Nietzsche’s magnum opus.About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 344 Genre/Categories : Classic Fiction Size(W x H) MM : 129 x 198 Author : Friedrich Nietzsche Language : English Publish Date : 16Aug2021 Legal Disclaimer: Product images are for illustrative purposes only.

The Originals Symposium and Other Dialogues by Plato - Om BooksAbout the Book :So how could he be a god if he is not in possession of beautiful and good things? The six dialogues of Athenian philosopher Plato featured in this book—Euthyphro, Apology, Crito, Meno, Phaedo and Symposium—form the bulk of his thoughts on the eternal questions of human existence. They grapple with the various meanings and complexities of erotic love and platonic love, desire, morality, beauty, virtue, valour, happiness, humankind’s fear of death and illness, loss, and grief. They also dissect the trial and public execution of Plato’s mentor, Socrates, throwing light on Socrates’ influential teachings and his personality. In Plato’s dialogues, several characters including Socrates argue a range of topics thoroughly by asking questions of each other and expressing their differing points of view. The dialogues continue to draw readers in because of Plato’s expert use of dramatic elements including generous doses of humour. Both the philosophical content and literary quality of Plato’s dialogues have endeared them to readers across the ages.About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 160 Genre/Categories : Classic Fiction Size(W x H) MM : 129 x 198 Author : Plato Language : English Publish Date : 25Sep2022 Legal Disclaimer: Product images are for illustrative purposes only.

The Originals Franz Kafka Selected Works by Franz Kafka - Om BooksAbout the Book :Franz Kafka’s short stories—shocking, complex, intriguing, and unsettling—show him at the height of his writing prowess. Kafka takes on universal themes such as guilt, isolation, alienation, self-expression, cruelty, judgement, shame, sin, and redemption in them. Hovering between dream and reality, his dark and brilliantly crafted stories are populated by both humans and animals. They are intense, enigmatic, filled with generous doses of irony and horror that inspire the reader to search for meaning in the world’s maze. This collection features an impressive clutch of his short stories including In ‘The Penal Colony’, ‘The Hunger Artist’, ‘The Metamorphosis’, ‘The Burrow’, ‘The Judgment’, ‘Before the Law’, ‘A Country Doctor’, and ‘ The Great Wall of China’. ‘ The Penal Colony’ is seeped in the dehumanising horror of WWI and it mixes the dazzle of modern technological advances with the barbarism of archaic, absolute law. ‘The Metamorphosis’ in which the alienated hero turns into an insect is an exquisite study of the human condition. The characters in Kafka’s stories are hunted and haunted, wandering in a world governed by forces beyond their control.About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 344 Genre/Categories : Classic Fiction Size(W x H) MM : 129 x 198 Author : Franz Kafka Language : English Publish Date : 15Mar2021 Legal Disclaimer: Product images are for illustrative purposes only.

The Originals The Wealth of Nations by Adam Smith - Om BooksAbout the Book :Scottish political economist and philosopher Adam Smith (1723–1790) is considered the father of modern economics. His influential book, The Wealth of Nations, is the first great work in political economy. In it, Smith argues against regulations on commerce and calls for a limited role of the government. The market economy is to be kept open and free if nations are to prosper, and the government’s core functions must be to maintain law and order, defence, build infrastructure, and promote education. Smith is critical of government control, but not an advocate of laissez-faire. He believes that the market economy can function only when rules are adhered to. Hence the government’s role in maintaining the rule of law is critical.The Wealth Of Nations, written before the Industrial Revolution transformed the world, resonates with readers in modern times and offers valuable lessons in solving the economic conundrums of the day.About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 984 Genre/Categories : Classic Fiction Size(W x H) MM : 129 x 198 Author : Adam Smith Language : English Publish Date : 15Mar2021 Legal Disclaimer: Product images are for illustrative purposes only.

The Originals Paradise Lost by John Milton - Om BooksAbout the Book :Long is the way and hard, that out of Hell leads up to light.British poet and polemicist John Milton (December 9, 1608–November 8, 1674) is best known for his epic poem, Paradise Lost. Almost 11,000 lines long, Paradise Lost was published in 10 books in 1667 and then in 12 books in 1674. In the poem, Milton chronicles the downfall of Adam and Eve, the confrontation between the Son of God and Satan, and the redemption of mankind through the Son’s supreme act of sacrifice. The central argument of the epic, which deals with the lofty themes of war, love, and heroism is to “justify the ways of God to man.” Milton employed a grand style to match the poem’s theme and tone. The metre, which he described as “English heroic verse without rhyme”, resembles those used by Homer in Greek and Virgil in Latin.While Classical epics valourised heroes for their passions and vainglorious battlefield exploits, Paradise Lost hails Christian heroism, which is exemplified by generosity, self-sacrifice, patience, and meekness.About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 302 Genre/Categories : Classic Fiction Size(W x H) MM : 129 x 198 Author : John Milton Language : English Publish Date : 20Aug2019 Legal Disclaimer: Product images are for illustrative purposes only.

Set mainly in the Belgian Congo, the novella explores the debilitating impact of colonization on the colonizer and the colonized. The unreliable narrator of the story, English sailor Charles Marlow is hired by a Belgian company to captain a steamer in the newly established Congo Free State. Intrigued by rumours about another company employee named Kurtz, who is said to be posted in the interior, Marlow sails upriver in search of him. During the journey and in his encounter with Kurtz, Marlow gets to see the “barren darkness” of men’s hearts and the horror and brutality colonizers have unleashed on the African heartland.

The Cinema of Tapan Sinha, An Introduction by Amitava Nag - Om BooksAbout the Book :Most serious discussions on Bengali cinema start and end with the holy trinity of Satyajit Ray, Ritwik Ghatak and Mrinal Sen. However, no other film-maker in Bengali cinema has bridged the world of high art with box-office success like Tapan Sinha. His cinema serves as the indelible link between the famed troika and their less-celebrated compatriots including Ajoy Kar, Asit Sen, Tarun Majumdar and a few others. Be it classic literary adaptations, satires, swashbucklers, or contemporary social critiques, Sinha addressed diverse genres in his films, expanding the boundaries of cinema within the realm of conventional, narrative storytelling. In their subtle experimentation, their exploration of the various strands of human life, and the belief in the ultimate nobility of the human soul, his films hold a unique mirror to life itself. Amitava Nag’s book provides a succinct introduction to the cinema of Tapan Sinha and the significant place he holds in Bengali and, indeed, Indian cinema. With characteristic erudition, the author explores Sinha’s deep roots in the Bengali cultural climate, mainly music and literature, and how they shaped his cinematic storytelling. For anyone interested in understanding the works of an underrated and often-neglected auteur, The Cinema of Tapan Sinha is the perfect place to start.About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 208 Genre/Categories : Cinema / Biography Size(W x H) MM : 129 x 198 Author : Amitava Nag Language : English Publish Date : 2Oct2021 Legal Disclaimer: Product images are for illustrative purposes only.

My Experiments with Silence: The Diary Of-An-Introvert by Samir Soni - Om BooksAbout the Book :Most of us are slaves to what has been described as the monkey mind. Driven by the illusion of unrealistic dreams and expectations, and the need for external validation, we are constantly caught in a tug-of-war between our inner life and the external universe. Samir Soni too has spent a lifetime oscillating between these two worlds, agonizing over the golden mean to strive for. He found it by experimenting with silence, turning to his diary as a companion in this journey, and finding the comfort in his inner self that the world outside could never provide. In My Experiments with Silence, the actor lays bare selections from his diary to help the reader cope with questions that have agitated the human mind for aeons. Who am I? Why am I the way I am? Can I truly change myself? In the process he underlines that until you discover the ‘real’ you, you are actually living someone else’s life, fulfilling someone else’s dreams, which were sold to you by the society at large. His engagement with the process of self-realization, the pitfalls and agonies that we open ourselves up to, the constant struggle between hope and despair provide a roadmap to everyone who has decided to undertake this arduous journey to one’s inner self.About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 192 Genre/Categories : Non- Fiction Size(W x H) MM : 129 x 179 mm Author : Samir Soni Language : English Publish Date : 26Nov 2021 Legal Disclaimer: Product images are for illustrative purposes only.

The Originals The Kiss and Other Stories by Anton Chekhov - Om BooksAbout the Book :Russian writer Anton Chekhov, full name Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904) is one of the greatest short story writers of world literature. Influenced by the venerated Russian masters, Nikolai Gogol and Fyodor Dostoevsky, Chekhov wrote hundreds of stories and novellas, tracing the trajectory of ordinary lives, capturing the vastness and backwardness of remote Russian provinces, shining the spotlight on bureaucratic apathy and corruption and the Russian obsession with rank, poignantly evoking a specific time and place through meticulous observation and telling detail. In Chekhov’s stories, an overt plot often hints at hidden stories, giving readers plenty of room to make use of their imagination. Chekhov displays deeply felt empathy and compassion for those who suffer misfortunes while managing to find human traits in the ones he dislikes. His canvas is wide – encompassing everything from happiness and intense suffering to slapstick humour. This collection includes some of Anton Chekhov’s finest stories including ‘The Dual,’ ‘The Lady with the Dog,’ ‘Betrothed,’‘Gooseberries,’‘TheKiss,’‘Fatand Thin,’and ‘The Trousseau’.About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 680 Genre/Categories : Classic /Short Stories Size(W x H) MM : 129 x 198 Author : Anton Chekhov Language : English Publish Date : 5Jan2023 Legal Disclaimer: Product images are for illustrative purposes only.

A World on Hold : A Living Record of the Global Pandemic by Divita Aggarwal and Surabhi Sundaram - Om BooksAbout the Book :"This moving collection of first person narratives, which carries a diverse range of voices and testimonials about the impact of the Pandemic, reads like a first draft of history." Namita Gokhale, Writer and co-director, Jaipur Literature Festival For those who have lived through the Covid-19 pandemic, life will never be the same again. This once-in-a-lifetime calamity has transformed the way we look at ourselves and the world around us. Not one individual has been left untouched by it. What does it mean to those who have survived and lived to tell the tale? Will there ever be any closure for the millions who have lost their loved ones, their livelihoods and a whole way of life? Through twenty diverse and compelling experiences of individuals living through an unprecedented global pandemic, A World on Hold chronicles a historic period which brought the whole world to a standstill. It documents the voices of not only the well-heeled and privileged – parliamentarian and author Shashi Tharoor, actor Vidya Balan, celebrity chef Shilarna Vaze and celebrated editor Nonita Kalra – but also those whose voices and stories were relegated to mere numbers: an anonymous police officer, a migrant worker, a gravedigger, a cabin crew member and even a Covid-19 human challenge volunteer, among others.About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 226 Genre/Categories : Non-Fiction/ Current Affairs Size(W x H) MM : 138 x 215 mm Author : Divita Aggarwal and Surabhi Sundaram Language : English Publish Date : 1Jul2022 Legal Disclaimer: Product images are for illustrative purposes only.

The Collected Poems of W.B. Yeats by William Butler yeasts - Om BooksAbout the Book :‘Inspired poetry, which in a highly artistic form gives expression to the spirit of a whole nation.’ The Nobel Committee described William Butler Yeats’s poetry as such when in 1923 it awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature to him. The first Irish writer so honoured. Born and educated in Dublin, Yeats (1865–1939) was not only an important figure in the Irish Literary Revival, but also a fervent Irish nationalist. A pillar of both Irish and British literary establishments in the 20th century, in his later years he served as an Irish senator for two terms. He assisted in founding the Abbey Theatre. The Collected Poems of W.B. Yeats showcases how he brilliantly made use of the saga of Celtic and Irish mythology, legends and personalities in his poems. Occultism was another. He took up personal themes too but he made it universal by relating it to the Irish folklore and mythology. His earliest volume of poetry was published in 1889. This definitive volume of Yeats’s poems maps his gradual transition from a romantic poet into a modernist one and documents how his poetry became darker, edgier and more concise in his later years.About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 408 Genre/Categories : Poetry Size(W x H) MM : 129 x 198 Author : William Butler yeasts Language : English Publish Date : 10Apr2023 Legal Disclaimer: Product images are for illustrative purposes only.

In Dilip Kumar: In the Shadow of a Legend, Faisal Farooqui, who knew Dilip Kumar for over thirty years, gives the reader a fascinating glimpse of the man beyond the legend. Gleaned from the author’s many exchanges over casual evening teas, car rides and sunset walks, or late-evening silent reflections at Jogger’s Park, and even a pilgrimage to the Holy Mecca, the book introduces us to aspects of the star very few of us know. His voracious appetite for books, his inquisitive and curious mind, his love for literature and poetry, his role in building Jogger’s Park, the foodie in Dilip Kumar and his love for paani puri at Karachi Sweets.There are also hilarious anecdotes from his film shoots, like the time he couldn’t run slowly enough for his first shot in cinema, or the one childhood experience that haunted him forever, the little-known Qissa Khwani Bazaar Massacre of 1930. Also, the many life lessons the author picked up from his innumerable conversations with the man he calls a ‘father figure in whom I found a guide’.About the Author : Binding : Paperback Pages : 208 Genre/Categories : Non-Fiction/ Memoir Size(W x H) MM : 138 x 216 mm Author : Faisal Farooqui Language : English Publish Date : 1Jul2022 Legal Disclaimer: Product images are for illustrative purposes only.
