"First published in 1939, Coming Up for Air is a novel written by George Orwell shortly before the outbreak of World War II. Set in 1938 London, the story revolves around a middle-aged insurance salesman George Bowling who lives in a suburban row-house with his wife and two children. As the years roll by, he feels like a hostage to his own wife and children and himself as a prisoner. One day, after winning some money from a bet, George steals away from his family to visit the village where he grew up, to fish for carp in a pool he remembers thirty years before. The pool, alas, is gone, the village has changed beyond recognition, and the principal event of his holiday is an accidental bombing by the RAF. In this novel, Orwell has portrayed a character who seeks to escape in order to come up for air. It is a poignant account of one man's attempt to recapture childhood innocence as war looms on the horizon."

The Opposition's 26-party Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) aims to pose a serious challenge to the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in the 2024 Lok Sabha election. Despite the coalition leaders' ideological differences and regional rivalries, their overwhelming intent is to prevent Narendra Modi from becoming the first Indian since Jawaharlal Nehru to win three successive five-year prime ministerial terms. The 2024 Lok Sabha election could prove historic. If Narendra Modi wins a third successive five-year prime ministerial term, he will be the first Indian leader to do so since Jawaharlal Nehru. In this sweeping account of events leading up to the 2024 General Election, Minhaz Merchant analyses how Modi has shaped Indian politics, economics and culture during his decade as prime minister. The book examines whether the Opposition's strategy to present a united front can derail the BJP's juggernaut. For example, can Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and regional satraps in Opposition-ruled states put aside their differences? Minhaz Merchant has met and interviewed Modi several times since 2012. The author analyses Modi's policies across key domains: geopolitics, economics, technology and social reform. Broken up into ten broad sections and thirty-one chapters, the book decodes Modi's evolution over the past decade from a regional leader to a global statesman.

एडी जाकु हा स्वतःला नेहमीच प्रथम जर्मन आणि नंतर ज्यू समजत असे. त्याला जर्मनीचा विलक्षण अभिमान होता; पण नोव्हेंबर 1938मध्ये त्याला झोडपलं गेलं, त्याला अटक करून छळछावणीत त्याची रवानगी झाली आणि त्याला जर्मनीचा वाटणारा अभिमान हा भूतकाळ झाला. त्याच्या पुढच्या सात वर्षांत, कल्पना करता येणार नाही असे भयकारी प्रसंग त्याच्यावर ओढवले; प्रथम बुखेनवाल्डमध्ये आणि नंतर आउश्वित्झमध्ये मृत्युयात्रेची वाट चालत असताना तो आपल्या कुटुंबाला मुकला, त्याचे मित्र त्याने गमावले आणि अखेर त्याचा देशही त्याचा उरला नाही. प्रसंगी हृदय विदीर्ण करणारी, तरीही अत्यंत समर्थ आणि आशादायक अशी ही स्मृतिकहाणी आहे. 'भोवती अथांग काळोख दाटला असला तरी आनंद शोधता आणि मिळवता येतो' हाच या प्रेरणादायी जीवनकथेचा संदेश आहे.

The book, 'The Diary of a Young Girl' is a compilation of diary writings of Annie Frank, a girl who had to resort to hiding along with her family because of the Nazi occupation. This book has received widespread publicity and is one of the most famous literatures of the Nazi era. This book has been translated in more than 60 languages and has received critical acclamation. Annie Frank died of typhus in a concentration camp and her diary was successfully retrieved by Miep Gies, who handed it to Annie's father, the lone survivor from the family.

She noted all major events and also wrote down various personal experiences. She maintained the diary regularly even during her tough times when her family went into hiding. This diary presents a distinctive account of the events that happened during that time and talks about the hardships faced by Jewish people due to the concentration camp. This diary reflects the cruelty of Nazism and the horrifying truths of Holocaust. The diary is written in three volumes which depict the three phases of her hiding life. In all senses, this book is a gripping read that showcases the dark side of humanity.

முதலில் தான் ஒரு ஜெர்மானியர், பிறகுதான் தான் ஒரு யூதர் என்று எடி ஜேக்கூ தன்னைப் பற்றி எப்போதுமே கருதி வந்திருந்தார். ஆனால் அந்த எண்ணம், 1938 ஆம் ஆண்டு நவம்பர் மாதத்தில், நாஜிப் படையினர் அவரை அடித்து உதைத்துக் கைது செய்து வதை முகாமுக்கு இழுத்துச் சென்றபோது முற்றிலுமாக மாறியது. அதற்கடுத்த ஏழு ஆண்டுகள், கற்பனையில்கூட யாராலும் நினைத்துப் பார்க்க முடியாத கொடூரங்களை எடி நாள்தோறும் அனுபவித்தார், நாஜிக்களிடம் அவர் தன்னுடைய குடும்பத்தினரையும் நண்பர்களையும் தன்னுடைய சொந்த நாட்டையும் இழந்தார். இறுதியில் அவர் எப்படியோ தப்பிப் பிழைத்துவிட்டதால், இனி தன் வாழ்நாள் முழுவதும் எப்போதும் மகிழ்ச்சியாக இருப்பதென்று அவர் ஓர் உறுதிமொழி மேற்கொண்டார். அவர் தன்னுடைய வதை முகாம் அனுபவங்களிலிருந்து தான் கற்றுக் கொண்டவற்றைப் பற்றிச் சொற்பொழிவுகள் ஆற்றி வருவதன் மூலமும், ஒரு மகிழ்ச்சியான வாழ்க்கையை வாழ்ந்து வருவதன் மூலமும், நாஜிக்களின் அடக்குமுறையின்கீழ் உயிரிழந்தவர்களுக்கும் தங்களுடைய சொந்தபந்தங்களை இழந்தவர்களுக்கும் அவர் அஞ்சலி செலுத்துகிறார். அவருடைய 100 ஆவது பிறந்தநாளையொட்டி வெளியிடப்பட்ட இந்நூல், இருண்ட காலகட்டங்களில்கூட மகிழ்ச்சியைக் கண்டுகொள்ள முடியும் என்ற நம்பிக்கையை விதைக்கின்ற ஒன்றாக மிளிர்கிறது.
