Goodbye, Amma: Grief with Grace — This heartfelt memoir beautifully captures the final days of a ninety-four-year-old mother's life and the loving care her daughter provides. It gently explores the delicate balance shared during these precious end-of-life moments. Throughout their journey, hope shines as they discover deeper meaning in living, dying, and honouring each other's care.

Prof. Somdatta Mandal's brief review of Santiniketan: Nature's Gateway to Spirituality has appeared in Literary Yard. Honestly, it has been satisfying to work on the collection alongside Bitann Chakraborty's selected photographs from Santiniketan.

At first glance, the book appears to be a photographic celebration of Santiniketan. But as one moves through its pages, it becomes clear that the authors are attempting something more ambitious. They are interested not merely in what Santiniketan looks like, but in what it suggests: about nature, spirituality, labour, memory, solitude, culture and the relationship between human beings and the world around them. The result is neither a traditional travelogue nor a conventional coffee-table book. It is a slow, reflective journey through a landscape that has acquired extraordinary cultural significance through Rabindranath Tagore. — New Asian Writing

Book Review: Tin Drum, carried by @NewAsianWriting .
Oskar’s admission that banging his drum is an exercise in memory reaffirms the ever enduring power of art and storytelling.

Framed around the idea that poetry is both a promise and a risk, the poetry workshop led by author @natashabadhwar invites participants to slow down and pay attention to the rhythms, images, and emotions that often get lost in the rush of everyday life.

𝐍𝐄𝐖@asiancha Yun Li’s essay was originally written in 𝑋𝑖𝑛𝑚𝑖𝑛 𝐸𝑣𝑒𝑛𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑁𝑒𝑤𝑠. She translated the piece into English "I wrote the piece because Saigon struck me as a city with both historical depth and an unexpectedly romantic undertone."

Murder in Moonlit Square by @PaulWaters99 - Superb. Different. Clever twists. Strong main characters. When’s the next one? 9.5/10 #amreading 📚

There’s a reason living men rarely become Gods. While you’re alive, you’re just a person. You love, break hearts, and commit mistakes.
Death freezes the story. Tragedy polishes the myth. The more dramatic the ending, the easier it becomes to mistake a human for a deity.
