lunak,/em>: to search for something without finding it 
mencintai: to love for the last time 
Meet a guilt-ridden nurse who atones for her sins by joining her zombified patients in exile; a lone soldier standing guard on a desolate Arctic island against an invasion that may be all in his mind; a folksinger who tries to unionize Hell; and a private eye who only takes your case after you die. Visit a resettlement centre for refugees from ancient Rome; a lost country recreated by its last citizen on the Internet; and a restaurant where the owner’s ghost lingers for one final party. Discover the inflationary effects of a dragon’s hoard, the secret connection between Mark Twain and Frankenstein, and the magic power of blackberry jam—all in this debut collection of strange, funny, and bittersweet tales by acclaimed writer Matthew Johnson.

    Bhuvan and Yasoda, the poor peasant couple, have been expecting their first child after a series of miscarriages triggered by malnutrition and hunger. The pregnancy has become complicated owing to the same curse, and it needs expensive medical intervention to sustain. Poverty and hunger have left them with no choice but to pray for divine interventions to pull this through. Bhuvan desperately looks for every avenue to earn to tide over his frugal means, but village politics and administrative corruption robs him of all opportunities. He turns to people for monitory help but none obliged. 
    As things turn pretty hopeless, Bhuvan meets a stranger who strangely seems aware of Bhuvans' plight. What is more, the stranger voluntarily offers every possible assistance to help Bhuvan ride over the crisis but makes it clear that help comes at a cost – some unknown service that Bhuvan has to render in exchange which he cannot decline later. Desperate, Bhuvan accepts the bait to try saving his beloved wife and possibly their first child. 
    The time comes to return the favor when the stranger escorts Bhuvan to an unknown destination in the darkness of the night. There, Bhuvan confronts his destiny and is petrified to realize his proverbial moment of truth that is ready to test his character and resolve in honoring his commitment as a return favor. 
    Tune in to this pulsating psychological thriller from "MyStoryGenie" Bengali Audiobooks series to witness an intense drama of eternal human dilemma between relationship and responsibility.

    A spirited collection of stories revealing the extremes of the human experience from the author of The Ice Storm In his first story collection, Rick Moody provides readers with a poignant, brazenly honest glimpse into the lives of a wide array of characters, from a paranoid husband obsessively listening in on his wife’s phone calls to the junkies and sex addicts of New York City’s underworld. Whether they’re grasping for connection or struggling to survive in a dismal and indifferent environment, these individuals’ haunting voices and the evocative worlds they inhabit make for a diverse and powerful volume.   Experimenting with form—one story is told as a term paper, another as an annotated bibliography—Moody demonstrates the vast range of his fascinations and talents, as well as his arresting command of language. Candid depictions of contemporary society and the inner-workings of distinctive characters’ minds bring these inquisitive, heartrending, and at times undeniably funny accounts to life. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Rick Moody including rare images from the author’s personal collection.

    A young woman hunts for her wayward shadow at the school where she first learned magic—while another faces a test she never studied for as ice envelopes the world. The tasks assigned a bookish boy lead him to fateful encounters with lizards, owls, trolls, and a feisty, sarcastic cat. A bear wedding is cause for celebration, the spinning wheel and the tower in the briar hedge get to tell their own stories, and a kitchenmaid finds out that a lost princess is more than she seems. The sea witch reveals what she hoped to gain when she took the mermaid's voice. A wiser Snow White sets out to craft herself a new tale.In these eight stories and twenty-three poems, World Fantasy Award winner Theodora Goss retells and recasts fairy tales by Charles Perrault, the Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Andersen, and Oscar Wilde. Sometimes harrowing, sometimes hilarious, always lyrical, the works gathered in Snow White Learns Witchcraft re-center and empower the women at the heart of these timeless narratives. Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America Grand Master Jane Yolen, in her introduction, proclaims that Goss "transposes, transforms, and transcends times, eras, and old tales with ease. But also there is a core of tough magic that runs through all her pieces like a river through Faerie . . . I am ready to reread some of my new favorites."
