Orwell Hughes - 20 years old, active in sports, arts and church - enjoys life as a young man coming of age in 1974’s Lusaka, where his father (James “Bwana” Hughes) is a Canadian diplomat and Orwell attends the University of Zambia. Orwell endears himself to African peers Benjamin Mudenda, Winter Banda, and Cepheus Belo, through interests in African languages, history, justice, and aspirations. Yet, he suffers racism and awkward social relationships with young women that his father and older brother Richard can’t help him solve. Orwell invites Tracy MacDonachie, his former Sunday school teacher and youth leader - who encouraged him as an impressionable lad back home in Canada - to visit him in Zambia, hoping that this older, successful and wiser man can continue to mentor him. Orwell’s sisters Suzanne and Janice Joanne invite Tracy’s sisters Kathleen and Alicia, to visit. The MacDonachies arrive for Easter but stay longer than planned, and are not as remembered; Tracy woos Orwell’s girlfriend Georgina. Several other Canadians join Bwana Hughes’s team, including Karla Bryant, whom Orwell agrees to tutor in English while the university has been closed by a workers’ strike. His hopes revive when he joins Tracy’s boxing clinic.

Indhumathi: synopsis: In a pretty Kerala village full of paddy fields and delicious gossip, a woman dreams of holding her own in a man’s world. The odds are against Indumathi. She gets no say even in her choice of a husband. But she wants to live on her own terms - even if it means breaking up her family and snatching what she thinks is rightfully hers. In a story that moves from rural Kerala to Delhi, Dubai, Kashmir and Rajasthan, author DJ explores the psyche of a woman who refuses to be ‘good’ or play by the rules. Will Indumathi be able to stick by her strong beliefs? Or will she have to give in and accept defeat? “The author brings alive a family and a story steeped in the beliefs and atmosphere of an Indian town. This realistic novel reflects the varied shades of grey you would find in any Kerala village. A fast-paced book you will finish in one sitting.” - V N Ashokan, Kerala Sahitya Academy
