This very first issue is a collection of stories about “shipping” that explores delivery work, the human relationship, and migration to other worlds. We encourage SFF in translation, new and emerging writers from non-Anglophone countries and diaspora writers. English is not the first language of most of our contributing writers, with two thirds of them from Asia and the other third from Brazil.

A History of the Canonical Literature of the Jainas
Jainism is one of the ten or twelve major world religions. Yet it is one of the least known, largely because its scriptures have remained less known than those of the other world religions. The present book is the first and only comprehensive and detailed description of the entire canonical literature of the Jainas, both extant and not extant. The author was unusually qualified for the task, having spent over a decade cataloging Jaina manuscripts in the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute. It includes two copious indices, one of authors and one of titles. It is an indispensable reference work for serious students of religion.

Indian Paleography
Professor Buhler`S Indische Palaeographie, Consisting Of 96 Pages With 9 Plates Of Alphabetical Characters And Numerals And 8 Tables Of Explanatory Transliteration Of Them, Was Originally Published In 1896. An English Version Of This Was Prepared By Professor Buhler Himself; The Manuscript Was On Its Way To The Press At The Time Of His Death. J.F. Fleet, With Great Difficulties, Recovered The Ms. And Got It Printed In Indian Antiquary. 1904, In The Form Of An Appendix. But It Was The Text Without The Plates And Tables. And That Had Been The Only Form In Which It Has So Far Been Available To Our Students And Scholars. It Is A Matter Of Great Satisfaction That For The First Time The Complete English Version Of Buhler`S Monumental Work, Along With The Plates And Tables, In Its Proper Book-Form Is Published. Page-References Of The German Original Are Indicated In Square Brackets Along With Fleet`S Valuable Introduction To The Text.
Lilavai
"The Prakrit romance Låilåavaåi, an early ninth-century poem attributed to Kouhala and set in modern-day coastal Andhra Pradesh, is the most celebrated work in the genre. Complexly narrated in the alternating voices of its heroines and heroes and featuring a cast of semi-divine and magical beings, it centers on three young women: Låilåavaåi, princess of Sinhala (today's Sri Lanka); her cousin Mahanumai, princess of the mythical city Alaka; and Kuvalaavali, Mahanumai's adopted sister. Following a prophecy that Låilåavaåi's husband will rule the earth, the princess happens upon a portrait of King Hala of Pratishthana and immediately falls in love. While journeying to meet him, she hears her cousins' tales of their lost loves, and then vows not to marry until they are reunited. To win Låilåavaåi's hand, King Hala journeys to the underworld, faces monsters, and overcomes armies. Låilåavaåi explores themes of karma and female desire, notably privileging women as storytellers. A new edition of the Prakrit text, presented in the Devanagari script, accompanies a new English prose translation"--
