SHIVI VISITS KOLKATA: THE CITY OF JOY
0₹250.00About the Book
The plays included in this Volume represent two main periods of Vijay Padaki’s writing. The first is when he was deeply involved in social development programmes that had field projects in rural areas. They were all addressing the issues of human rights and social justice, although from different ‘sectoral’ perspectives. It was the absence of rights and justice that was coming in the way of development in real terms. Violence was not ruled out. Mandap is the play from that period. The dynamics of rights and justice are seen in the urban setting too. The next five plays in this volume represent a period of writing in which the writer was increasingly drawn to developmental issues in the urban setting. The plays form a set that came to be called Tales From the City. They are grouped in this Volume as two double-bills and one play by itself. Violence is the recognizable undercurrent in all these plays. Second Shift Muster is the oldest of the play scripts appearing in this volume. The one-act play is included in this volume for a variety of reasons. As with the other tales, this play explores a lesser known city-based occupation in changing times with changing value systems.

THE SQUADRON DIARIES
0₹495.00About the Book
The vocation of a fighter pilot is a very specialized one. At present there are probably not more than 20,000 active fighter pilots in the world. Today India has maybe less than a thousand active fighter pilots in service. The demanding nature of this profession attracts a select few and accepts fewer still. Very few people have the privilege of being intimately familiar with the life of a IAF fighter pilot. This book creates a picture of the everyday lives of these heroes. To show more than the bravado and the wars. This is a book about their stories of training, camaraderie, about fears and motivations, and most importantly, it’s about them and their love of flying.
