Nepali Women at the Crossroad

By Prativa Subedi

Rs 300



This book uses examples of gender, development and empowerment through community-based programs to provide an insight into the lives of Nepali women and their potential. it is based on the experiences of working with women and men in different communities across Nepal. Topics in this book use women’s stories to highlight gender issues and how they should be addressed.



There is a commonly quoted phrase in Nepal, “The gods rejoice where women are worshipped”. Ironically, the majority of the people only pay respect to goddesses in temples but not to the ordinary woman in their homes. The majority of men and women in Nepal suffer from low social and econo0mic status. However, it is women who suffer the most because of the patriarchal values embedded in Nepali society.



The Tales of Beedle the Bard

By J.K. Rowling

Rs 960



There is no easy way to define the experience of seeing, holding, or reading J.K. Rowling’s The Tales of Beedle the Bard, so let’s just start with one word: “Whoa.” The very fact of its existence (an artifact pulled straight out of a novel) is magical, not to mention the facts that only seven copies exist in all the world and each of the never-before-told tales is handwritten and illustrated by J.K. Rowling herself (and it’s quite clear from the first few pages that she has some skill as an artist). Rowling’s handwriting is like the familiar scrawl of a favorite aunt--it’s not hard to read, but it does require attention--allowing you to take it slow and savor the mystery of each next word.



So how do you review one of the most remarkable tomes you’ve ever had the pleasure of opening? You just turn each page and allow yourself to be swept away by each story. You soak up the simple tales that read like Aesop’s fables and echo the themes of the series; you follow every dip and curve of Rowling’s handwriting and revel in every detail that makes the book unique--a slight darkening of a letter here, a place where the writing nearly runs off the page there. You take all that and you try and bring it to life, knowing that you will never be able to do it justice. With that, let’s dig in and begin at the beginning, shall we?
