Doying
The folktales are wrapped in an air of pulsating saga and mysteries replete with romance, bravery, mysterious encounters with the unknown and also fantasy elements such as spirit possession and haunting. Before reading the folktales, you need to understand that the Adis, a major tribe from Arunachal Pradesh, consider everything animate or inanimate to having an existential life which goes through the process of creation, procreation and regeneration even after its demise. Most folktales contain the regenerative element where a dead body or a severed part of a body can regenerate and metamorphose into an entirely different entity having a life on its own!

Fading Visages
The book is about a father from the viewpoint of a daughter whom she did not really know and her journey to discovery as she delves into a forgotten past.
Whispers from the Mountains
Whispers from the Mountains is a collection of poems based on the ethereal beauty of Arunachal Pradesh, a state located in the far northeastern part of India, where the sun first makes it first entrance in the country kissing the gleaming peaks of the high rugged mountains of the state. It is a collection of poems which more or less relate to the amazing vistas of the Himalayan state and the effects of modernism creeping into that fabled land of our forefathers. The poems are mostly an expression of the celebration of nature, of life, and living in today's world.
Those Broken Whispers Volume II
In the quiet dance of whispers, unspoken words linger like elusive shadows, weaving tales of emotions that find solace in the silent spaces between conversations. Within the realm of the unuttered, a profound language emerges, revealing the profound depths of sentiments that transcend the limitations of spoken expression.
Marginalised and Endangered Worldviews
"The study of worldviews marginalized by mainstream modernity is an eminently important undertaking. It helps us better recognise, cherish and keep the values of traditions and practices that exist. This is important, when the uniform vision of the world heaped on us from the medias, modernist political movements and ideologies, revealed itself as unreal and fake, rendering it evident that the modern utopia of enlightened rationality is just a delirious nightmare."--Arpad Szakolczai, Professor of Sociology, U. College Cork. ***This book fosters dialogue on critical problems faced by endangered indigenous cultures and marginalised communities. The ethos is collaborative and comparative describing the implications for global society of the destruction and impoverishment of human and ecological cultural diversity.

The Inheritance of Words
A first of its kind, this book brings together the writings of women from Arunachal Pradesh in Northeast India. Home to many different tribes and scores of languages and dialects, once known as a ‘frontier’ state, Arunachal Pradesh began to see major change after it opened up to tourism and once the Indian State introduced Hindi as its official language. In this volume, Mamang Dai, one of Arunachal’s best known writers, brings together new and established voices on subjects as varied as identity, home, belonging, language, Shamanism, folk culture, orality and more. Much of what has been handed down orally, through festivals, epic narratives, the performance of rituals by Shamans and rhapsodists, revered as guardians of collective and tribal memory, is captured here in the words of young poets and writers, as well as artists and illustrators, as they trace their heritage, listen to stories and render them in newer forms of expression.

Strewn Petals
Strewn Petals is a collection of memoirssome narrations, poems, and short stories, where some of which have been drawn from some real-life encounters garnished with a bit of fiction. Some of you might find the prose part too lyrical and winding, but that is the essence of petals! Most of the stories and poems relate to the life you can find in the smoky green mountains of the extreme northeastern part of India.
Into the Hidden Valley
The sins of the father ... Charles Taylor was raised in the typical British manner of the late Victorian era: distant from his father, George, a civil servant in India. The two grow closer as Charles ages, but after his father's untimely death, he finds himself on a path of discovery about George's life and his role in the pacification of tribes near the Tibetan border, especially his father's encounter with a powerful shaman and his son. A past as hidden as the Apatani valley, which protects its secrets well.
