Description

The independence of India with its cursed partition lies at the background of the novel. The book is a family story of Sushila, a forced migrant from erstwhile East Pakistan. The shocking declaration of partition at once made them alien to their motherland. The eight-membered family, forced by circumstances to leave behind rich property, set out for India penniless. Sushilas father-in-law died on the way. That stunning blow brought her back to her past life under the guidance of her father-in-law, whose tremendous personality she tried to present, reminiscing past incidents. The contemporary social milieu and the educational system in erstwhile East Pakistan are presented through the bringing up and education of Nirbed, Sushilas elder son. The ineffable hardship and struggle of the family and finally their survival at the cost of a number of deaths that the family faced deserve praise, but Sushila was then beyond all acclaims.

FINALIST FOR THE 2024 NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FOR POETRY “This is an incredibly powerful book of poetry that is also fiction but it is so real, and singular, as to defy definition, and I defy anyone to read it and come away unchanged.” —Tommy Orange, author of There There and Wandering Stars A stunning, multimorphic work of poetry and prose about Indigenous identity mother is a work rooted in an intimate fracture: an Indigenous child is adopted out of her tribe and raised by a non-Indian family. As an adult finding her way back to her origins, our unnamed narrator begins to put the pieces of her birth family’s history together through the stories told to her by her mother, father, sister, and brother, all of whom remained on the reservation where she was born. Through oral histories, family lore, and imagined pasts and futures, a collage of their community emerges, raising profound questions about adoption, inheritance, and Indigenous identity in America. Through poetic vignettes whose unconventional forms mirror the nonlinear, patchwork process of constructing a sense of self, m.s. RedCherries has crafted an indelible and utterly original work about the winding roads that lead us home.

Description

The novel „Mother”, one of Gorky’s most popular works, was based on the mass demonstration of 1902 in the city of Sormovo. Hence, an exciting plot based on real events, with a sharp political struggle, secret gatherings, searches, arrests, and the selfless heroism of the main revolutionary hero Pavel Vlasov. However, the central image in the novel is Pelageya Nilovna Vlasova, the mother of the hero, one of the most striking and exciting characters in Russian literature, symbolizing the eternal image of the Mother endowed with the gift of unlimited love and patience.

Description

Voilà trois histoires qui se contaminent en ayant pour dessein de n’en dire qu’une. Cette histoire, c’est celle d’une Trinité constituée par Andrée, Robert et le fils. Ce fils raconte, de sa propre naissance à la mort de sa mère, la fabrication d’une espèce de famille qui tient bon en dépit des éclats, des égarements, des déroutes, grandioses. En dépit aussi des croyances et des visions d’Andrée. Car c’est elle, femme-volcan éprise de liberté, être tout en fureurs, qui trace la destinée commune. Le fils l’a vue en fuite, emportée par des amours imaginaires, puis, toujours, l’a vue revenir. Il l’a vue guérisseuse, médium, inspirée, mais aussi chanteuse de variétés, femme moderne et femme de tête, missionnée, insurrectionnelle et toujours entendue. Il l’a vue aimée par Robert, cet homme-rocher dont l’existence semée de deuils en fait pourtant la cheville ouvrière de cette étrange association familiale. Le fils n’a pas vu la chute finale, il aurait pu la prédire et entendre cette ritournelle, ce « Salut la compagnie ! » dont Andrée usait comme d’une menace, cette fois-ci bien réelle. Hanté par le sentiment de la tragédie imminente, Mother déploie, au présent et en trois axes, une trajectoire clanique autant que familiale toujours imprévisible, en livrant un portrait de la folie qui donne à l’écriture toute son énergie et sa nécessité, et dont souvent on s’arrache par la tendresse et un rire salvateur.

Description

This antiquarian book contains Gorky Maxim’s 1906 novel, “The Mother”. It is a moving and thought-provoking narrative of the parallel between the evolution of one man’s mother and the evolution of Mother Russia. Mother is uneducated and has been beaten in her life, and has a loving son who wants to protect her. The son is a revolutionary. As the mother starts to read and educate herself, she becomes close to the revolutionaries who frequent her house, and eventually risks it all to make Russia a better society. Alexei Maximovich Peshkov (1868 – 1936) was a Russian writer and political activist who founded the Socialist Realism literary method. This seminal book has since been translated into many languages and adapted for the screen numerous times. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern edition, complete with a new prefatory biography of the author.
