Pratigya by PremChand Ji
देवकी - 'जा कर समझाओ-बुझाओ और क्या करोगे। उनसे कहो, भैया, हमारा डोंगा क्यों मझधार में डुबाए देते हो। तुम घर के लड़के हो। तुमसे हमें ऐसी आशा न थी। देखो कहते क्या हैं।'देवकी - 'आखिर क्यों? कोई हरज है?'देवकी ने इस आपत्ति का महत्व नहीं समझा। बोली - 'यह तो कोई बात नहीं आज अगर कमलाप्रसाद मुसलमान हो जाए, तो क्या हम उसके पास आना-जाना छोड़ देंगे? हमसे जहाँ तक हो सकेगा, हम उसे समझाएँगे और उसे सुपथ पर लाने का उपाय करेंगे।'देवकी - 'नहीं, क्षमा कीजिए। इस जाने से न जाना ही अच्छा। मैं ही कल बुलवा लूँगी।'देवकी - 'प्रेमा उन लड़कियों में नहीं कि तुम उसका विवाह जिसके साथ चाहो कर दो। जरा जा कर उसकी दशा देखो तो मालूम हो। जब से यह खबर मिली है, ऐसा मालूम होता है कि देह में प्राण ही नहीं। अकेले छत पर पड़ी हुई रो रही है।''प्रतिज्ञा' उपन्यास विषम परिस्थितियों में घुट घुट कर जी रही भारतीय नारी की विवशताओं और नियति का सजीव चित्रण है। प्रतिज्ञा का नायक विधुर अमृतराय किसी विधवा से शादी करना चाहता है ताकि किसी नवयौवना का जीवन नष्ट न हो। नायिका पूर्णा आश्रयहीन विधवा है; समाज के भूखे भेड़िये उसके संचय को तोड़ना चाहते हैं। उपन्यास में प्रेमचंद ने विधवा समस्या को नए रूप में प्रस्तुत किया है एवं विकल्प भी सुझाया है। यह गोदान के तुरंत बाद की कृति है जिसमें लेखक अपनी शक्तियों के चरमोत्कर्ष पर था।
Lysistrata
Aristophanes, a native Athenian and the leading exponent of Greek comedy, was born c. 450 BCE. Today forty-three of his plays are known by title; eleven survive. The most famous of these is the whimsical fantasy Lysistrata.A perennial classroom and stage favorite as well as the basis of Spike Lee's Chi-Raq, the play is as relevant today as it was 2,500 years ago. The premise is simplicity itself: to end the Peloponnesian War, women decide to withhold sex from their husbands until the fighting stops.The play is by turns raucous, bawdy, frantic, and funny. David Mulroy's exciting new translation retains the original's verse format, racy jokes, and vibrancy-setting it apart from previous efforts, which are typically reproduced as prose or depart from meaning and meter. His introduction offers a concise summary of Aristophanes' life and social milieu, including a brief overview of the Peloponnesian War, which took place during the playwright's lifetime. The appendices include guides on translating meter and Greek pronunciation for aspiring thespians.

The Constant Star by Jessica Stirling
World War II hits home to a scattered London family in new and unexpected ways in Jessica Stirling's stirring third novel about Britain under siege. Susan Cahill enjoys her job at the BBC until a bomb destroys the building and brings unwelcome responsibilities and an autocratic new boss, Walter Boscombe. He has no time for ambitious young women from Shadwell and seems determined to break Susan's spirit—and her heart. Breda Hooper, Susan's widowed sister-in-law, and her small son are rescued from London's shattered docklands by Danny, Susan's estranged husband. Settled in a shabby caravan in small town Evesham, Breda soon finds herself entangled in village affairs in more ways than one, with only her quick wits, her new friends, and the ever dependable Danny to keep her out of trouble. For Susan and Breda jeopardy comes not from the skies but in the terrible price each must pay for falling in love with men who are not all what they seem to be and who, even in the midst of all out war, will change their lives forever.
