THE UNSUNG VERSES: A Poetry Collection is not just a book, it is a dream come true. Getting a book published by including poems which are extremely close to my heart, was always a desire, which blossomed in my heart over the years of my growing up. Literature is the food for soul for me. I have always took pride in collecting books from writers across the globe. I am a voracious reader and a creative writer. I write poems, stories and articles in English and Hindi. This Anthology has 51 poems composed by me. I derive inspiration from daily life and various aspects from the myriad human emotions. Life is not life, if emotions are drained from the fountain of the heart. Majority of my poems are filled with the love between a mother and child. I empathize with people from all walks of life be it a heart broken lady, a small girl vendor or a transgender. The book is dedicated to my son, who is the sole purpose of my life. I wish, when he grows up, he nurtures and inherits the love for literature. I strive to raise him as a human being, the society may be proud of someday. Whatever he aims to be in life, my priority is to let him inculcate human values in his nature and character as he grows up as a man. I am sure, my efforts in composing these poems will be appreciated by my most respected and loved readers.

Today, an international new right has coalesced. Variously described as nativist, right-populist, alt-right, and neofascist, far-right movements in many countries have achieved electoral victories that not long ago seemed highly improbable. They have also developed a new cultural politics. Adapting tactics from the left, the new right has moved from decorum to transgression; from conservative propriety to the frank sexualization of political figures and positions; from appealing to the conscious normalcy of the “silent majority” to recasting itself as a protest movement of and for the aggrieved. These movements share a mandate for robust nationalism, yet they also cultivate a striking international solidarity. Who is the subject of this ethnonationalism? Many new right movements have in fact intensified or laid bare long-standing tendencies, but this volume seeks to address aspects of their cultural politics that raise new and urgent questions. How should we assess the new right’s disconcerting appropriations of strategies of minoritarian resistance? How can we practice critique in the face of adversaries who claim to practice a critique of their own? How do apparently post-normative versions of nationalism give rise to heightened forms of militarism, incarceration, censorship, and inequality? How should we understand the temporality of ethnonationalism, which combines a romance with archaic tradition, an ethos of disruption driven by tech futurism frequently tinged with accelerationist pathos, and a kitschy nostalgia for a hazily defined recent past, when things were “greater” than they are now? Surveying nationalisms from Argentina, Brazil, France, Germany, India, Israel-Palestine, the United Kingdom, and the United States, Reaction Formations gives a critical account of contemporary ethnonationalist cultural politics, while drawing out counterstrategies for anti-fascist resistance.

Marcel Dupré's career as an organist spanned the first seven decades of the 20th century, and took him all over Europe, North America, and Australasia. He delighted vastaudiences wherever he played, and attracted large numbers of enthusiastic students, for whom his church of St. Sulpice in Paris and his home at Meudon were their musical Mecca. Dupré had a profound influence on a host of musicians who sought his guidance, and as a composer for the organ his place in the historical line of J.S. Bach, the Couperins, César Franck, Widor, and Vierne is assured. Graham Steed is recognized for his skilled and musicianly advocacy of Dupré's compositions and he brings a keen and discerning intelligence to his analyses.

A soulmate bond is a beautiful and an intense one which can be felt only by two delicate souls. A soul divided as two by birth are united as one in the earth, and that’s how the earth became the place for love. It’s just two different bodies, but a lovely reunion of a soul. Not every relationships that are united are beautiful, some are the most beautiful only at their forever departure. The feel of soulmateship is always unique. Their journey together or a departure is beautiful too with some pains. “No matter who your soulmate is, if you feel the connection, it’s always unique in its most beautiful ways.” - Nandhini Chithra
