The compelling, inspiring, and comically sublime New York Times bestseller about one man’s coming-of-age, set during the twilight of apartheid and the tumultuous days of freedom that followed. Trevor Noah’s unlikely path from apartheid South Africa to the desk of The Daily Show began with a criminal act: his birth. Trevor was born to a white Swiss father and a black Xhosa mother at a time when such a union was punishable by five years in prison. Living proof of his parents’ indiscretion, Trevor was kept mostly indoors for the earliest years of his life, bound by the extreme and often absurd measures his mother took to hide him from a government that could, at any moment, steal him away. Finally liberated by the end of South Africa’s tyrannical white rule, Trevor and his mother set forth on a grand adventure, living openly and freely and embracing the opportunities won by a centuries-long struggle. Born a Crime is the story of a mischievous young boy who grows into a restless young man as he struggles to find himself in a world where he was never supposed to exist. It is also the story of that young man’s relationship with his fearless, rebellious, and fervently religious mother—his teammate, a woman determined to save her son from the cycle of poverty, violence, and abuse that would ultimately threaten her own life. The eighteen personal essays collected here are by turns hilarious, dramatic, and deeply affecting. Whether subsisting on caterpillars for dinner during hard times, being thrown from a moving car during an attempted kidnapping, or just trying to survive the life-and-death pitfalls of dating in high school, Trevor illuminates his curious world with an incisive wit and unflinching honesty. His stories weave together to form a moving and searingly funny portrait of a boy making his way through a damaged world in a dangerous time, armed only with a keen sense of humor and a mother’s unconventional, unconditional love.Source: penguinrandomhouse.ca

“What the Communist Manifesto is to the capitalist world, Annihilation of Caste is to India.” —Anand Teltumbde, author of The Persistence of CasteB.R. Ambedkar’s Annihilation of Caste is one of the most important, yet neglected, works of political writing from India. Written in 1936, it is an audacious denunciation of Hinduism and its caste system. Ambedkar – a figure like W.E.B. Du Bois – offers a scholarly critique of Hindu scriptures, scriptures that sanction a rigidly hierarchical and iniquitous social system. The world’s best-known Hindu, Mahatma Gandhi, responded publicly to the provocation. The hatchet was never buried.

Born in the town of Sighet, Transylvania, Elie Wiesel was a teenager when he and his family were taken from their home in 1944 to Auschwitz concentration camp, and then to Buchenwald. Night is the terrifying record of Elie Wiesel's memories of the death of his family, the death of his own innocence, and his despair as a deeply observant Jew confronting the absolute evil of man. This new translation by his wife and most frequent translator, Marion Wiesel, corrects important details and presents the most accurate rendering in English of Elie Wiesel's testimony to what happened in the camps and of his unforgettable message that this horror must simply never be allowed to happen again.

Remnants of a Separation is a unique attempt to revisit the Partition through objects that refugees carried with them across the border. These belongings absorbed the memory of a time and place, remaining latent and undisturbed for generations. They now speak of their owner's pasts as they emerge as testaments to the struggle, sacrifice, pain and belonging at an unparalleled moment in history. A string of pearls gifted by a maharaja, carried from Dalhousie to Lahore, reveals the grandeur of a life that once was. A notebook of poems, brought from Lahore to Kalyan, shows one woman's determination to pursue the written word despite the turmoil around her. A refugee certificate created in Calcutta evokes in a daughter the feelings of displacement her father had experienced upon leaving Mymensingh zila, now in Bangladesh. Written as a crossover between history and anthropology, Remnants of a Separation is the product of years of passionate research. It is an alternative history of the Partition - the first and only one told through material memory that makes the event tangible even seven decades later.

  Summary\
 (Throwback Review)\
  \
 If you or any of your friends or relatives ever had a relationship with a toxic person, there is a high probability that this book might help you.  This book is based on the real-life story of the author Anubhav Agrawal. It tells us all the tribulations he had to endure to survive a toxic relationship. It is considered extremely difficult for an empath (like the author) to keep body and soul together after a toxic relationship. To write a memoir based on it necessitates a sheer amount of audacity. "So many people stay in relationships with partners who insult and disrespect them and take them for granted every single day. They end up losing their self-respect and their ability to love and be loved."  \
  Three things you can learn from this book \
\
  1) Why are some individuals more prone to fall into a toxic relationship? \
 There are different types of abusive relationships. They are the abusive relationships of parents to their children, children to their parents, husband to his wife and vice versa, boyfriend to a girlfriend, and vice versa. The most difficult kind of abusive relationship is the one by parents towards children. It is extremely onerous for children who haven't attained the maturity to deal with such parents. I am ventilating only the toxic relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend here as this book is dealing with such a similar theme. The empaths are the people who are more prone to fall into the whims of a toxic partner. The high level of compassion that the empaths possess will attract predators like the people with narcissistic personality disorder and histrionic personality disorder into their life. In this book, the author has never said that his lover had any personality problems. He just described his experience in the best way possible and left the rest for the readers to interpret as all the characters in this book are real people. Some lessons he learned from his life section mentioned in the last part of this book is good, but it is not enough for this book's scope. So I will utilize the reviewer's prerogative to discuss a little more about toxic relationships here, which should have been (at least partially) there in this book.How can you find out whether your relationship is toxic?There is a high probability that you are in a toxic relationship if at least a few of the things mentioned below are present in your relationship.-1) Mirroring and making you feel special.- 2) Monitoring and stalking- They will use every method to monitor you(like your social media accounts and your interests and study you perfectly from a safe distance to form tactics to mirror you. In extreme cases, it can go to a state called trance for the victim, where they will have to hyperfocus on the toxic person and will be psychologically defenseless).-3) Intensity (abuser wants you and your family to approve and love the abuser in an obsessive way).-4) Grandiosity.-5) Manipulative and controlling nature (they control your social media, finances, and your attitude towards your friends and relatives).-6) Stare- Intense stare without blinking and emotion.-7) Scapegoating- Direct projection of toxic person's insecurities over the victim.-8) Clandestine abuse- in the form of advice and solutions in the disguise of a sincere attempt to help.-9) Isolation - Limiting your time with your friends to make you more dependent on them.-10) Diminishing and dismissing your ideas and opinions with eye-roll and scoffs.-11) Triangulation - Pitting the victim against others without the victim being fully aware of what is taking place (like divide and conquer).-13) Amplification, The toxic person will shout out your failure and whisper your successes (The abuser always wants the limelight).-14) Emotional blackmail.-15) Rationalization- Justifies and makes excuses for their behavior.-16) Crazy making- they will say or do something and later denies ever doing or saying to make you doubt your sanity.-17) Anger outbursts and temper tantrums - hot and cold games by flattering you at one time and being aggressive the other time.-18) Name-calling and criticism.-19) Splitting- All or nothing thinking.-20) Guilt trip- Toxic person tells the victim that he/she does not care enough and is too selfish to keep the victim submissive and self-doubting.-21) Blanket statements and generalizations (abuser saying you are too sensitive when you bring to their notice of an unacceptable behavior).-22) Nitpicking- They will always try to find the negatives in you even when you are successful.-23) Infantilize- They will call you immature and that you have no knowledge about life.-24) Imposing inappropriate restrictions - To make sure you won't succeed.-25) Pathological lying.-26) Vilifying the victim if they stand up or defends themselves.-27) Double-blind- Always will tell that our choice was the wrong one if we select from two options and the other one was better.-28) Negative reinforcement- They will give positive attention on a random basis to keep the victim emotionally unstable.-29) Positive reinforcement - They will give us a gift or favor only for getting our attention for their benefit, and they can get favor in return.-30) Gaslighting (making the partner question their sanity).-31) Lack of empathy for the partner's feelings.-32) Brainwashing.-33) Objectifying- Toxic people use the victim as a tool for their purposes. (sexually, financially, or any other means).-34) Word salad (or shizophasia - Is seen in mental disorders and also toxic relationships)- arguing for the sake of arguing, which pushes you into submission, exonerating them from accountability.-35) Projection (blame-shifting)- Toxic person will actually lie but will say that their innocent partner is the one who is lying.-36) Destructive conditioning- Toxic people should always be the center of attention, and they will do anything to prevent you from achieving your big dreams so that the toxic people can still feel superior.-37) Threats- physical and mental.-38) Gangstalking- like online mobbing to make the victim quiet using a group of people.-39) Hypocrisy.-40) Minimization- They will say that their behavior is not as harmful as the others claiming by comparing them with others.-41) Displacement- Displacement of anger by slamming the door, throwing something, or using a weapon in extreme cases.-42) Infidelity- Toxic people are generally polygamous.-43) Boundary testing - To see which all things they can get away with.-44) Silent treatment- Punishing you for small things by ignoring and then demanding you an apology.-45) Precautionary defense - someone initially saying to you that they are empaths or nice guys or girls and you should trust them. -46) Blaming partners for their outbursts.-47) Setting up to fail - They will destabilize the victim and make sure that they won't succeed.-48) Hurt and rescue - They will hurt you or create a situation, and then they will give the solution. (creating a problem for others and solving it to "rescue" you).-49) Sabotage -Making you miss your sleep and miss many important events in life.-50) Jealousy towards you for you talking to friends of the opposite sex.-51) Baiting partner to disturbing arguments and insinuating comments and then feigning innocence.-52) Love bombing and devaluation (devaluing their ex-partners who threatened their superiority and putting you on the pedestal).-53) Smear campaigns- If you don't play according to the toxic people's will, they will make you appear as a toxic person in front of others by gossiping and various other tactics.-54) Hoovering- They will suck you back into the relationship after a long period of silent treatment to hurt you more.-55) Emotional poking with outrageous jokes - verbal abuse in the disguise of cool jokes. If you react, they will say you are overreacting and sensitive and emotionally unstable.-56) Sarcasm and laughing at you - People laughing with you will always be fun, but laughing at you by the toxic person will be one of the most traumatic experiences in a person's life.-57) Extreme ego, which will push you to hypervigilance.-58) Shaming- Never open up your weakness to toxic people. They will use it as a weapon to shame you into making you feel unworthy.-59) Victim card- To gain sympathy for gaining something (more prevalent after the advent of social media).We can see some of the above tactics used by the author's lover in their relationship in this book.\
  2) Converting the setbacks from the breakup into something productive \
There are two ways to accept a setback in our life. A) First is to go into a denial mode and never accept what actually happened. B)The second one is to go into acceptance mode. There are two ways in which we can accept it. - First way is to accept it and lament over it infinitely to get our life into self-destruction mode by succumbing to addictions and sorrow. The second method of acceptance is the best way to tackle the situation: accepting the position and initially taking a couple of weeks to heal ourselves then convert all the pain into something productive, which might help many people. Anubhav Agrawal, the author, comes in this latter category. He is the founder of the online poetry community called Iwritewhatyoufeel, which has more than three million followers on social media. He also wrote this excellent book from his experiences, which inevitably became a best seller. \
  3) Three biggest mistakes a person can make (based on the author, Anubhav’s experience) in a toxic relationship \
The three major mistakes committed by the author in his love life are 1) Getting destroyed by the abuser's silent treatment.2) Easily fell into the trap of the abusers hoovering after the silent treatment.3) Tried to get closure from a toxic person in the relationship. (which won't happen in 99.99% cases)Despite having so many red flags, the author could not identify that he was in a toxic relationship and fell into the traps of the abuser's tactics until the final part of this book. It is a problem that the majority of people will face in a toxic relationship. The abuser's mirroring will cause them to think that they had found their true love and soulmate.\
  \
\
  My favourite three lines from this book \
 “For relationships to work you need to adjust. Adjust to the situations that would be created, adjust to the behavior of the person. But these adjustments are supposed to be from both sides, not just one. If it is just from one side, it becomes a burden; The relationship becomes a burden."  \
 "If you succeed in cheating someone, don't think that the person is a fool, realize that the person trusted you much more than you deserved."     “When you give your love to someone in abundance, it loses value for them.”  \
  Rating \
 4/5 I think that the author should have at least done a little bit of retrospective evaluation of the type of abuse he faced and should have properly discussed what actually happened in the disguise of a romantic relationship in the last part of this book. All his evaluation of his extremely complicated relationship was described in one single page, which is not adequate. I can't fully blame him, though, as there is a limit to which we can criticize a living person (his abuser). All the endeavors undertaken by the author after finishing this book are also praiseworthy. This is a must-read book if you are planning to be in a relationship in the future, if you are in a relationship right now, if you are having any trouble in your relationship or if you are a break-up survivor.

Raag Darbari is a Hindi novel written by Srilal Sukla, an author known for his social and political satire. He was awarded the Sahitya Academy Award, the highest Indian literary award, in 1969 for this novel.The novel highlights the failing values present in post-Independence Indian society. It exposes the helplessness of intellectuals in the face of a strong and corrupt nexus between criminals, businessmen, police and politicians.The novel is narrated from the point of view of Ranganath, a research student in history, who comes to live with his uncle, Vaidyaji, in a village named Shivpal Ganj for a few months. He learns how his uncle uses all the village institutions — the village school, the village panchayat (a local elected body), the local government offices for his political purpose. The conduct of his uncle and the petty village politicians is in stark contrast to the ideals that Ranganath has learnt to aspire to during his university education.

'Gloriously provocative... female sexuality within a patriarchal world is Chughtai's central concern' Kamila Shamsie, from the introduction Lifting the Veil is a bold and irreverent collection of writing from India's most controversial feminist writer. These stories celebrate life in all its complexities: from a woman who refuses marriage to a man she loves to preserve her freedom, to a Hindu and a Muslim teenager pulled apart by societal pressures, to eye-opening personal accounts of the charges of obscenity the author faced in court for stories found in this book.Wickedly funny and unflinchingly honest, Lifting the Veil explores the power of female sexuality while slyly mocking the subtle tyrannies of middle-class life. In 1940s India, an unlikely setting for female rebellion, Ismat Chughtai was a rare and radical storyteller born years ahead of her time.'Ismat Chughtai is known for her iconoclastic, feminist writings which explored the inner workings of women's lives' Huffington Post

A reimagining of the world-famous Indian epic, the Mahabharat—told from the point of view of an amazing woman.Relevant to today’s war-torn world, The Palace of Illusions takes us back to a time that is half history, half myth, and wholly magical. Narrated by Panchaali, the wife of the legendary Pandavas brothers in the Mahabharat, the novel gives us a new interpretation of this ancient tale. The novel traces the princess Panchaali's life, beginning with her birth in fire and following her spirited balancing act as a woman with five husbands who have been cheated out of their father’s kingdom. Panchaali is swept into their quest to reclaim their birthright, remaining at their side through years of exile and a terrible civil war involving all the important kings of India. Meanwhile, we never lose sight of her strategic duels with her mother-in-law, her complicated friendship with the enigmatic Krishna, or her secret attraction to the mysterious man who is her husbands' most dangerous enemy. Panchaali is a fiery female redefining for us a world of warriors, gods, and the ever-manipulating hands of fate.

Read the Longman Simplified English version.This book is important because it's a window into the lifestyles of people living in the 18th century. I have to admit the dullness of the interactions mixed with the third person omniscient style (which lacks emotions) did not give me a good first impression of the novel. Yet, due to curiosity as to why this is a classic I decided to keep going. As far as petty drama goes I was pleasantly surprised upon reaching 3/4 of the book. (view spoiler)[When the youngest sister Lydia ran off with the sleazy Mr. Wickham the plot took an interesting turn which significantly changed my opinion. The title of the book is also very fitting. Pride = Mr. Darcy Prejudice = Elizabeth The story about two unlikely people that fall for each other while overcoming their flaws.  (hide spoiler)]
