The Lost Fragrance
A little girl has to avenge the death of her parents. She must travel to the neither-here-nor-there land, a secret place hidden in shadows and whispers. The voyage turns out to be more than she bargained for, as the final battle draws her into the mystery and the dangers of self-discovery. The Lost Fragrance brings back the old-world charm of storytelling, conjuring up characters out of thin air and creating a world of magic and mystery. It is an adventure story woven around the eternal theme of good and evil. It is about the joy of music and love, of death and of letting go.
Lessons from Ruslana
Ruslana was the face of a Nina Ricci perfume. With her striking features, she took the fashion world by storm and quickly became the toast of the glitterati. But who was she really, and why did she look so unhappy? No one would know until, one day, they discovered that she was just another lost and lonely girl. With Ruslana's tragic world as the centrepiece of this motivational masterclass, Amit Dasgupta explores why we do what we do. Drawing inspiration from a wide range of sources, such as, John Berger, Viktor Frankl, Akira Kurosawa, Zen Buddhism and many others, he takes the reader on an inspirational journey, unravelling the mystery behind the one question that haunts us: why am I unhappy, why do I fail, will I ever matter?

Strings Attached

Sometimes, you still get tied up and pulled by a string attached to the giving source, and the source need not be aware of it. Set in the back drop of various places like Dhaka, Bali, Bangalore, Jammu & Kashmir, London, US, Varanasi, a train, cafes and colleges, the anthology Strings Attached comes up with sensational stories showing that you are made by either favourable or unfavourable people and the situations. The authors take you through a delightful journey into their minds and hearts by entwining myriad relationships and emotions with glorious words.
Minds Unplugged
