The saga of The Karans of Penang talks about K.S. Karan, a blind admirer of the British, had a sudden change of heart when his only son Krishna became the victim of torture at the hands of the colonial masters. With the same zeal, he joined the Indian National Congress, then fighting for the freedom of the country. His loyalty to the Congress led to his banishing his son from his house when Gandhi was assassinated and the R.S.S. of which his son was a member, was suspected to have a hand in it.

Join us on an epic journey to India! K.V. Dominic, one of India's leading contemporary English poets, takes us on a trip to India in this constellation of short stories.

Spark of Light is a diverse collection of short stories by women writers from the Indian province of Odisha. Originally written in Odia and dating from the late nineteenth century to the present, these stories offer a multiplicity of voices—some sentimental and melodramatic, others rebellious and bold—and capture the predicament of characters who often live on the margins of society. From a spectrum of viewpoints, writing styles, and motifs, the stories included here provide examples of the great richness of Odishan literary culture. In the often shadowy and grim world depicted in this collection, themes of class, poverty, violence, and family are developed. Together they form a critique of social mores and illuminate the difficult lives of the subaltern in Odisha society. The work of these authors contributes to an ongoing dialogue concerning the challenges, hardships, joys, and successes experienced by women around the world. In these provocative explorations of the short-story form, we discover the voices of these rarely heard women.
