A Forbidden Love
sn’t it strange how difficult it is to acknowledge how real an office romance can be and how it can affect the most hardened of hearts? For though it is studiously ignored, this most commonplace romance finds a way to just be––whether the ending is successful or not. After all, spending hours and hours working in proximity with people who share similar goals, passions and dreams together can easily develop into healthy or toxic relationships. Hate, Lust or Love are often the unintentional consequences of such entanglements. In this humorous duo collaboration, "A FORBIDDEN LOVE", authors––Linda Lokhee and Reena Doss––explore the possibilities of an office romance. They unmask the cool surface of dormant feelings that have built up over time between a boss and his secretary. Behind those workaholic days and nights, the couple find it hard to ignore their carefully sealed fates. Will they make it through societal expectations as well as their own fears about the future? Ink Gladiators Press is proud to present our first chapbook publication to you all - A Forbidden Love: A duo poetic collaboration exploring the stigma of an office romance.
Travellers For Life
How many of us have the courage to leave our comfort zone to fearlessly become the people we believe ourselves to be? Do we pretend that we are capable of big things yet find ourselves caught up in the smaller things in life’s mad race? Do we cling to “being too busy”, “schedules”, and a ton of other excuses based on our supposed priorities? Have we buried our gifts and talents in fear of not making enough to live if we were to use them? Have we carelessly forfeited our choices due to our inability to stand up for what we were born to do? Do we postpone our hearts’ dreams because they seem too overwhelming or do we give them a 110 percent shot at succeeding? Building idealistic g...
Knowledge in Ferment
Fundamental controversies, or basic oppositions between methods and approaches, occur in all fields of science and scholarship. Often these dilemmas arise at the nexus of science and society, or when several sciences or disciplines clash. Paradoxically, as much as one might prefer to do without them, these dilemmas are indispensable to the progress of scientific scholarship. Knowledge in Ferment collects the reflections of nineteen professors from Leiden University whose fields of expertise range from classics to quantum physics in order to evaluate the great controversies that dominate their fields and consistently form new paradigms that sustain the fermentation of knowledge and deliver remarkable new insights.
The Facing Island
The discovery of a wonderful primary source—the five-year correspondence from Wilson Tong of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force to Edith Harris at Phillip Island—inspired the author to create this rich and unusual memoir, written as she came to terms with a diagnosis of cancer. As the author replies to the long-dead soldier's letters, links and parallels emerge between the young man living with the fear of death and the woman, 80 years later, facing her own death in middle age. She reflects on her life—particularly her childhood on Phillip Island—her work, and her own confrontation with mortality.
Love Is An Open Door
Ever felt like no matter how much we love someone, and try our best to please them, we always seem inclined to mess or screw things up without meaning to? Quite often we forget that love is expressed in many ways and not in the way we ourselves express it. This leads to frequent misunderstanding, arguments, unnecessary pride and feelings of rejection. Love in any relationship––we learn through experience––is not an easy road to maintain unless we give it free reign to manifest itself on a daily basis. In this collaboration, co-authors––Timi Jolaoso and Reena Doss––explore love’s true nature and how it is expressed within the dynamics of a relationship. The act of surrender,...
Shooting Blanks at the Anzac Legend
War is traditionally considered a male experience. By extension, the genre of war literature is a male-dominated field, and the tale of the battlefield remains the privileged (and only canonised) war story. In Australia, although women have written extensively about their wartime experiences, their voices have been distinctively silenced. Shooting Blanks at the Anzac Legend calls for a re-definition of war literature to include the numerous voices of women writers, and further recommends a re-reading of Australian national literatures, with women’s war writing foregrounded, to break the hold of a male-dominated literary tradition and pass on a vital, but unexplored, women’s tradition. Sh...
The Olentangy Legacy
The Olentangy Legacy, Books One and Two, cover the history of Galion, Ohio from the first primitive settlement on the Olentangy River to the vibrant community existing after the First World War. Much of the history of Galion is taken from newspaper columns written by the author and published in the Galion Inquirer. Photographs were derived from several sources, primarily the citizens of Galion, Ohio. Publication was made possible by resources and funding provided by the Galion Historical Society.
The Colonel Who Would Not Repent
Bangladesh was once East Pakistan, the Muslim nation carved out of the Indian Subcontinent when it gained independence from Britain in 1947. As religion alone could not keep East Pakistan and West Pakistan together, Bengali-speaking East Pakistan fought for and achieved liberation in 1971. Coups and assassinations followed, and two decades later it completed its long, tumultuous transition to parliamentary government. Its history is complex and tragic—one of war, natural disaster, starvation, corruption, and political instability. First published in India by the Aleph Book Company, Salil Tripathi’s lyrical, beautifully wrought tale of the difficult birth and conflict-ridden politics of this haunted land has received international critical acclaim, and his reporting has been honored with a Mumbai Press Club Red Ink Award for Excellence in Journalism. The Colonel Who Would Not Repent is an insightful study of a nation struggling to survive and define itself.
