Where East Wind Whispers
₹325.00Every human being carries within an inner consciousness – a self untouched by social norms, expectations, or imposed identities. Beneath roles and responsibilities lives a free being, seeking expression. That inner space – quiet yet powerful – gives birth to poetry.Human beings are part of nature, as instinctive and organic as rivers and trees. What sets us apart is our reflective mind – our ability to look inward and recognize the self that often remains hidden. When we truly listen, we may discover a voice different from the one the world assigns us – a voice that is tender, questioning, resilient, and free. Where East Wind Whispers is born from that inward listening.
It gathers memories of sea winds and village ponds, of migration and return, of love and longing, of faith and doubt. It is a conversation between the child who listened outside her father’s study and the woman who now writes her own lines. If, within these pages, you pause and hear your own inner wind whispering – then this book has fulfilled its purpose.

Whisper of the Anklets
₹225.00Whisper of the Anklets (Odia – Paunjira Pandulipi) by Bipin Mohanty is not merely a book – it is a lyrical pilgrimage into the soul of rural Odisha. Each of its sixty sonnets resonates with the rhythms of village life: the soft jingle of anklets echoing through narrow earthen lanes, the golden glow of evening lamps lit at the Tulsi shrine, and the ageless serenity of love lived in silence, simplicity, and sacredness. Composed in the classic Shakespearean sonnet form (4-4-4-2), this collection distills the essence of village emotions – a world where moonlight romances the fields, where glances speak more than words, where rituals cradle relationships, and where even silence carries the weight of longing. These are not merely poems; they are portraits – of a place, a culture, and a heart that beats to the quiet music of belonging. The sonnets celebrate love in its most unadorned form, the subtle elegance of rural femininity, the spiritual intimacy of shared silences, and the timeless grace woven into everyday moments. At their core lies a deep rootedness – to the soil, to fleeting memories, and to an emotional heritage passed down like heirlooms. The anklet, in this collection, is not just an ornament; it is a metaphor. It whispers of memory, womanhood, devotion, and legacy – a sound that lingers long after the feet have passed, echoing across generations. In translating Whisper of the Anklets, my endeavour has been to preserve not only the meaning of each sonnet but the mood – the cadence, the subtle music, the quiet intensity that make Bipin Mohanty’s work so richly evocative. This is more than a linguistic bridge; it is an emotional and cultural one. Whether you come from the heartland of Odisha or are discovering its lyrical traditions for the first time, I hope this collection touches you – allowing you to feel mist laced mornings, hear voiceless prayers, and walk gently through the tender terrain of these poems. Whisper of the Anklets is my humble tribute – to poetry, to love, to land, and to the timeless whispers that shape our souls. —-Dr. Sonali Sahu

Whispers Between Silence and Light
₹250.00Whispers Between Silence and Light is a meditative journey through the quiet spaces of human experience-love and loss, memory and solitude, the eternal dialogue between presence and absence.
From the windswept edges of Patagonia to the dusted trails of the Camino, from the still gaze of Lady Liberty to the silent warmth of a familiar presence, each poem invites the reader to pause, breathe, and listen.
This is poetry that lingers-gentle yet piercing, personal yet universal. It is for those who have loved and let go, who have sought meaning in stillness, and who understand that sometimes the most profound truths are found not in what is spoken, but in what is left unsaid.

Woven Reflections of Poems, Stories and Plays
₹250.00This is a book of poems, stories, and plays. The texts that comprise this volume are a product of moments of our life: times looking back, times to search for, and times of change. However, these do not stand alone; they speak to each other within a layered experience unfolding across various formats.
We chose to begin with poetry because it captures a moment: the raw emotion, the flash of a thought often in the most distilled way. It can be a whisper, a shout, or a quiet realization that beckons the reader to interpret it in their own way. But sometimes, a moment needs more than that – it needs more context, more depth, and space to breathe.
That’s where the short stories come into play, to be able to continue the themes developed in the poem and give a narrative slant to them. One will see the emergence of characters, and settings defined.
And then the plays. The way people talk, the spaces between, and the tension of what is never said have always interested us. Writing the stories into scripts seemed the natural step, allowing them to be articulated and performed and to live from the page. The transition from poetry to prose to stage was a way for me to experiment with perspective, structure, and voice.
For us, writing has always been about finding the right form to express an idea. Some thoughts are best left as poetry, others need to be lived through a story, and some are meant to be spoken out loud, felt in the rhythm of conversation. This book is a collection of those choices-a reflection of how words can shape and reshape meaning depending on how they are framed.
We hope you like reading this book as much as we did writing it.
