After successfully fending off the Chalukya's siege of Kanchi, the Pallava emperor Mahendra Varmar drives the enemy king, Pulikesi, to call for a truce. The statesman in Pallavar is keen to convert a foe into a friend, but a vengeful Pulikesi reneges on his commitment. While the Pallavas are successful in chasing the Chalukyas away, Pallava Nadu bears the brunt of Pulikesi's wrath. Fate wields its unpredictable hand further. A rash decision by the sculptor Aayanar and his daughter Sivakami results in her being abducted by the Chalukyas. Sivakami takes a momentous vow, little realizing how far-reaching the consequences will be. How will the Pallava crown prince Narasimha Varmar, who is in love with Sivakami, act? Will Mahendra Varmar shape his son's future in a manner he had always envisaged? And what role will the Machiavellian bikshu play in Sivakami's life as a captive? The Bikshu's Love, the action-packed third volume of Sivakami's Vow, is unputdownable, and sets the stage for the s
Longlisted for the 2021 National Book Award for PoetryFrom the winner of the Ruth Lilly Poetry Prize come masterfully crafted narratives of protest, grief and love.Martín Espada is a poet who "stirs in us an undeniable social consciousness," says Richard Blanco. Floaters offers exuberant odes and defiant elegies, songs of protest and songs of love from one of the essential voices in American poetry.Floaters takes its title from a term used by certain Border Patrol agents to describe migrants who drown trying to cross over. The title poem responds to the viral photograph of Óscar and Valeria, a Salvadoran father and daughter who drowned in the Río Grande, and allegations posted in the "I’m 10-15" Border Patrol Facebook group that the photo was faked. Espada bears eloquent witness to confrontations with anti-immigrant bigotry as a tenant lawyer years ago, and now sings the praises of Central American adolescents kicking soccer balls over a barbed wire fence in an internment camp founded
Evocative storytelling and beautiful art present the true story of how reintroducing wolves into Yellowstone Park saved its ecosystem.When wolves disappeared from Yellowstone Park in the 1930s, the ecosystem started to collapse. Enormous herds of elk swarmed the plains, bears starved, rabbit families shrunk and birds flew away to new homes. Plants vanished, trees withered and rivers meandered.Until in 1995, wolves were reintroduced to the park and everything began to change for the better. This is the story of their homecoming.Engaging, fascinating and hopeful, this book shows that human actions can make a difference―because every creature plays a part in the fight against the environmental crisis.
