Sinopse

The most famous poet of the Edo period in Japan, Matsuo Basho was of samurai descent and a Zen Buddhist, who became a master of haiku. He helped create a new style of poetry, capturing the meaning of the world into simple poetry. His work is celebrated for contrasting two separate experiences, reflecting the environment and emotions of a single moment, taken directly from nature. Haiku is a short form of poetry, composed of three phrases and 17 syllables. It has been employed by Basho and his fellow haikuists throughout the last five hundred years to convey an extraordinary depth of expression and ornate beauty. The Delphi Poets Series offers readers the works of literature’s finest poets, with superior formatting. This volume presents a wide selection of haiku by the leading poets of the last five centuries, with new translations, illustrations and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)

    Publisher’s Note:Two years ago, when we published Pranab Raha’s collection of essays ‘Akopat’, we promised the readers that we will bring more of his works in the future. Hence, we are pleased to bring you his second published audiobook ‘Charminar’.‘Charminar’ is a collection of four short and long stories by the author that are basically satirical in nature.In this book, he has brought out the subtle aspects of human character in a humorous approach. Like all his writings, these stories too, have an unspoken hidden message, that a sophisticated reader would have no difficulty in grasping.We hope that ‘Charminar’, like the author’s first book ‘Akopat’ published by us will be well received by the readers.Author’s Note:The intersection of time and technology has brought about some changes in the way people consume literature. Recognizing this change, I have published an audiobook of four stories, embracing this transformation.However, for enthusiastic readers, the printed hard copy of the book will also be made available very soon.Since the four stories are narrated by four different narrators in distinct styles, the stories do not possess the same qualities in all aspects.Nevertheless, if the stories provide an enjoyable listening experience, then the efforts and contributions of those involved in this endeavour, although somewhat limited, will be worthwhile.

    Life has the capacity of great moments and attainment, of lives well-lived, both fulfilling for ourselves and those around us.  But for others life is arduous, there is no spark to ignite the curiosity, to explore a stability and a growth for their lives.   
    Indeed, their lives, in their own eyes, become almost meaningless, their sense of themselves subsumed under a myriad of problems, whether real or imagined. 
    Seismic events in their lives might crush them.  The loss of a loved one for instance.  Coping is difficult, support is hard to find, and isolation abounds.  We never really know the reason, or the motivation, but one final, dreadful way out is the solution. 
    In this volume our authors explore stories that help us understand and recognise a tragic circumstance.
