Book excerpt: REX ELLIS leads an amazing life, one driven by a sense of curiosity, adventure, adaptability, practicality and more than a dash of mischief. These traits are powered by a loyal heart and a strong mind and body. From his early days growing up in the South Australian bush to his continent-spanning adventures on foot, by car, camel and boat, he has relied on his ability and wit, and an infectious sense of wonder. His comfort in extreme environments is endearing and enduring. It is a hallmark of his adventures and key to the experiences of those lucky enough to have travelled with him over the decades. It can take courage to get out of your comfort zone, Rex says. And I see the trepidation some people feel, but then it usually comes good … I just say we make our plans then we ride on the back of nature.

Book excerpt: The Desert Stories is a collection of short stories that celebrates storytelling. It pays homage to a period when stories and their lessons were ubiquitous, for all the phases of life. It takes traditional stories from monotheistic religions and presents it with a twist. In doing so, it blurs the differences between them and attempts to retell the positivity of life. The stories begin with characters posing various questions from the usual walk of life, these questions then lead to the story within. The collection blends parables, Sufi thoughts, and philosophies in the narration eventually acting as a poetic medicament for harsh reality. Often, the endings are not noisy and dramatic, but tranquil and serene. The stories compel us to linger on to contemplate the aftermath. Each story is a journey within.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book showcases the diverse literary traditions from India’s Northeast and their shared connections and lineages. It critically analyses a selection of literary works from authors and poets from this region and the hegemonies of language, ethnicity and politics that have framed these voices. As a region with rich cultural and ethnolinguistic diversity, Northeast India’s literature is representative of varied histories, languages, socio-cultural and religious practices. The book highlights the distinct use of language, forms, cultural symbols and metaphors which articulates the unique experiences of conflict, beauty and culture in this area. Focussing on the translingual and transcultural aspects of these literary works it examines the dynamics between literature, language and their socio-cultural influences. The book pays attention to themes of representation, identity and power to showcase voices and perspectives of dissent, criticism and introspection. It explores contemporary critical approaches to literature from the Northeast, by re-examining the idea of the centre and the periphery and the position of subaltern literary voices. This book will be of interest to students and researchers of literature, language, cultural studies, postcolonial studies and South Asian studies.
