At once vulnerable and redemptive, dreamlike and visceral, compassionate and unforgiving, these poems seek a myriad existence without forgetting the prerequisite of self-preservation in a world bent on extinguishing its othered voices. Vuong's poems show, through breath, cadence, and unrepentant enthrallment, that a gentle palm on a chest can calm the most necessary of hungers.

Written by Valm ki during Rama’s time, and ratified by him, this timeless epic has been treated with utmost care by all acaryas in their famed commentaries. Since the advent of human civilization, it has inspired many poets and dramatists across the subcontinent and has been transcreated in almost all Bharat ya languages. Multiple layers of philosophy and theology are an embellishment to this classic. Its influence on Bharat ya music, dance, sculpture and textiles is unfathomable.

Story
A book of twenty-six poetic essays written in English, Kahlil Gibran’s Devdoot is full of religious inspirations. With the twelve illustrations drawn by the author himself, the book took more than eleven years to be formulated and perfected and is Gibran’s best-known work. It represents the height of his literary career as he came to be noted as 'the Bard of Washington Street.' Captivating and vivified with feeling, Devdoot has been translated into forty languages throughout the world, and is considered the most widely read book of the twentieth century.

Story
आज से करीब आठ सौ वर्ष पहले जन्मे रूमी ने धर्म, देश और काल की सभी बाधाओं को लांघ कर अपनी रुबाइयों और गुज़लों से। ऐसा सूफ़ीवाद फैलाया कि वे संसार के सभी देशों में, विशेषकर अमेरिका में, सबसे अधिक पढे । जाने वाले कवि माने जाते हैं। उनका सूफ़ियाना कलाम सैकड़ों वर्षों से लोकप्रिय है। उनके शब्दों ने विभिन्न संस्कृतियों वाले पाठकों के मन को एक समान छुआ है। आध्यात्मिक प्रेम के सहज अतिरेक और उसके वैभव से जितना समृद्ध हमें रूमी ने किया है, उतना और कोई नहीं कर सका है।

गागर में सागर की तरह इस पुस्तक में हिन्दी के कालजयी कवियों की विशाल काव्य-रचना में से श्रेष्ठतम और प्रतिनिधि काव्य का संकलन विस्तृत विवेचन के साथ प्रस्तुत है। रैदास (1410-1500) भक्ति आंदोलन के बड़े और महत्त्वपूर्ण संत कवि हैं। उनके लेखन की सबसे बड़ी विशेषता अपनी जातीय अस्मिता है। मध्यकाल के सीमित समझे जाने वाले सामाजिक परिवेश में अपनी हैसियत और जाति के प्रति ऐसा अकुंठ स्वाभिमान समूचे भक्ति साहित्य में उन्हें विशिष्ट बनाता है। अपनी निर्गुण भक्ति में रैदास जीव और ब्रह्म को एक मानते हैं। मनुष्य को ईश्वर भक्ति और समता के मार्ग से भटकाने वाली माया की निन्दा उनके यहाँ भी बार-बार मिलती है।
