Before You Called Her Difficult is most compelling when read as a book about relationships and the invisible emotional work that often takes place inside them. Tayaba Nasir’s debut explores womanhood through themes such as sacrifice, freedom, love, family, motherhood, letting go, healing, identity, and strength. Together, these subjects create…
At first glance, The Room Remembers has all the ingredients of a classic supernatural mystery: a storm, an isolated hotel, strangers forced to stay the night, strange encounters, hidden corridors, and a forgotten diary. What gives Sumit Saurabh’s novel its distinctive identity, however, is the emotional idea beneath those elements.…

The Ultimate Guide for World Peace is perhaps most accurately described as a spiritual polemic with a universal ambition. Acharya Charandas takes on one of the largest possible subjects – the causes of human conflict – and approaches it through a sustained comparison between what he regards as eternal Vedic…
