Book excerpt: Taslima Nasrin is known for her powerful writing on women's rights and uncompromising criticism of religious fundamentalism. This defiance on her part had led to the ban on the Bengali original of this book by the Left Front in West Bengal as well as the Government of Bangladesh in 2003. While the West Bengal government lifted the injunction after the ban was struck down by the Calcutta High Court in 2005, Nasrin was eventually driven out of Kolkata and forced to expunge passages from the book, besides facing a four-million-dollar defamation lawsuit. Bold and evocative, Split: A Life opens a window to the experiences and works of one of the bravest writers of our times.

Haasil is a successful, self-made and young entrepreneur who is both physically and emotionally recuperating from a fatal accident in which he lost the true love of his life.

To uncover the dark secrets of this quiet town, Maity has to dig deep into the past - into the Talukdar family's bloody history, and a curse that has haunted the family for generations.

Book excerpt: Beginning with Timur, Sultan Ghazni who invaded India seventeen times at the head of a large army, plundering the country of its great wealth, to the last Mughal Emperor Bahadur Shah, banished from the country by the British - details and descriptions of every incident and each king astonish and exhilarate us. The approach is direct, simple and unambiguous. From Timur to Bahadur Shah it is one engaging account. The book should find a place in every household, as an authentic account of ourselves. A flawless portrait. -THE HINDU Madhan while explaining historical events uses modern similes... In spite of being a cartoonist in his previous avatar Madhan did not caricature the Moghul Emperors and their subjects. I am so pleased he did not sit on judgement as a south Indian non-Muslim writer. -KAMAL HAASAN

Book excerpt: The Gang of Six were clinching their fists under the 21-seater oval teak table in the PMO in New Delhi. How could their Prime Minister speak to them like that? How does the Constitution of India allow such people, with just 35 seats out of 543 in the Lok Sabha, to become the PM? The Indian PM’s aircraft took off from Islamabad Airport at 7:45 am IST and was scheduled to land at the Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) in New Delhi at 9:10 am IST. When the aircraft started deviating from its scheduled route, there was panic at the IGIA air traffic control tower. By 9:15 am IST, the aircraft was seen heading south, when it became out of range of the radars at IGIA. Had the PM’s aircraft been hijacked? Was it headed to Sri Lanka or the Maldives? The defence minister, external affairs minister and the NSA had accompanied the PM to Islamabad. In their absence, the best men to contact the Indian Air Force Chief were the cabinet secretary or the defence secretary. Both men tried to get hold of him, but to no avail. He was not answering his office or mobile phone. They tried the Vice Chief and got no response either. What in hell was going on? By 9:45 am IST, Indian Army soldiers in battle gear began arriving in army trucks at North and South Block, and at various other ministry buildings spread across Lutyens’ Delhi. Hundreds of soldiers also arrived at the residences of the union ministers in the 28.7 km2 Lutyens Bungalow Zone. At 9:45 pm Pakistan Time, about five hours after the Indian generals had finished the press conference in New Delhi and about two hours after millions had started demonstrating on roads across fifty-plus Indian cities, Prime Minister Irfan Khan chaired a meeting of Pakistan’s National Security Council. A plan of action was framed.

Book excerpt: 'Why do they call you Baaz?' 'It means falcon,' he replies solemnly. 'Or bird of prey. Because I swoop down on the enemy planes just like a Baaz would.' Then he grins. The grey eyes sparkle. 'It's also short for bastard.'1971. The USSR-backed India-Mukti Bahini alliance is on the brink of war against the America-aided Pakistani forces. As the Cold War threatens to turn red hot, handsome, laughing Ishaan Faujdaar, a farm boy from Chakkahera, Haryana, is elated to be in the IAF, flying the Gnat, a tiny fighter plane nicknamed 'Sabre Slayer' for the devastation it has wreaked in the ranks of Pakistan's F-86 Sabre Squadrons. Flanked by his buddies Raks, a MiG-21 Fighter, Maddy, a transport pilot who flies a Caribou, and fellow Gnatties Jana, Gana and Mana, Shaanu has nothing on his mind but glory and adventure - until he encounters Tehmina Dadyseth, famed bathing beauty and sister of a dead fauji, who makes him question the very concept of nationalism and whose eyes fill with disillusioned scorn whenever people wax eloquent about patriotism and war...Pulsating with love, laughter and courage, Baaz is Anuja Chauhan's tribute to our men in uniform.

Book excerpt: "Brooklyn-based pastry chef Emily Lael Aumiller sits squarely in the overlap of show-stopping cakes and special-needs diets. Her creations are vegan and gluten free, yet look like they belong in a magazine — as indeed they have (see Martha Stewart Weddings and Brides). Her new book, “Pure Artistry: Extraordinary Vegan & Gluten-Free Cakes” (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, $35), provides a master class in special-diet cakes and cake-decorating. With beautiful (and hardworking) photographs by Lauren Volo." —Newsday "Aumiller’s goal of creating “edible art” (that just happens to be vegan and gluten-free) is apparent in this graceful collection divided into two sections: Recipes & Techniques and Aspects of Cake Design. The author’s years of baking without the likes of eggs and milk led her to years of experimenting in search of successful “stable” cakes, and readers will benefit from her research into alternative ingredients such as gluten-free flours, unrefined sugars, and plant-based fats. Detailed information on tools and decorating leads to cake recipes centered on Mexican chocolate, coconut, and ginger. The highlights of the book are the often intricate and always lovely cake decorations; how-to sections give step-by-step photos for painting and stenciling adornments, sculpting feathers, and creating and applying a chevron pattern. Photography by Volvo captures the artful creations in full-page spreads: “Gold in Chaos” is a three-layer cake that appears to defy gravity, and “Pleated Angels,” a wedding dress–inspired cake, boasts pristine “folds.” This title is both inspirational and enjoyable to browse." —Publishers Weekly —
