Summary

Artist Louis "Kelly" Neville is already famous, but finds greatness easier to talk about than achieve. Chance conversation with the model for his new project leads him to put his theories about creativity, society, and love to the test, and he finds that other people have their own ideas about how all of these should go, from his closest friends and rivals to the woman who warms his heart. Indeed, love itself may cost him everything, including his artistic inspiration.

    Moors’ Most Famous Sites in...

    Tucked away on the crest of the Al-Sabika Hill in Granada of Andalusia, Spain, just left of the babbling stream of the Darro River, sits a majestic structure overlooking the charming city and mystical meadows of La Vega. This palatial fortress and the fabled Alhambra are one and the same. To those that have seen it in its full glory, this was heaven on earth itself. Many were quick to fall under the spell of its breathtaking beauty, with its admirers lovingly dubbing it “a pearl set in emeralds.”  
    	Even if one were to discount security and the Spanish royals who reside here seasonally, legend has it that the Alcázar is never truly uninhabited. Take a post-midnight stroll through the colonnades or the baths, and listen closely, insist mystics, and one will hear the spine-tingling sniffling, harrowing whimpers, and wretched weeping of the hapless souls who met their demise at the hands of Pedro the Cruel, Peter I of Castile, one of the many builders and tenants of this bewitching place. The vicious and volatile wrath of the cruel monarch knew no bounds, and his victims, no numbers. Some say these cries belong to the young maidens who were burnt at the stake for no other reason than rejecting Pedro's romantic advances. Others say they come from the spirit of Eleanor of Guzman, the mistress of Pedro's father, Alfonso XI of Castile, and one of Pedro's first kills. Or perhaps they come from all of Pedro's victims, cursed by their violent deaths to roam the Alcázar in perpetuity. 
    	The Calle Cardenal Herrero in Córdoba is an iconic cobbled street impossible to overlook, for it is home to the Andalusian city's spectacular Mosque-Cathedral. Also known as “La Mezquita,” this one-of-a-kind Moorish and Christian place of worship reels in about 1.5 million visitors each year, most of whom find themselves spellbound by its hypnotic architectural features and riveting history.

    In a world where the female body has become the quiet battlefield of ideological warfare, Peace Strategy offers a radical lens—one that refuses to play by inherited rules. This book is not a manifesto of rage, nor a cry for permission. It is a sovereign declaration from the gaze of a woman who has seen the game, decoded its symbols, and chosen to exit. 
    Across borders and belief systems, women are commodified in the name of freedom, contained in the name of honor, and silenced in the name of protection. Western capitalism sells empowerment as a product. Eastern fundamentalism cloaks control in reverence. Both claim to serve women. Neither offers her full autonomy. 
    Peace Strategy is a book for those who are ready to confront the contradiction. For world leaders who legislate bodies without understanding their sacredness. For cultural influencers who shape narratives without reckoning with their consequences. For women who know too much and refuse to stay silent. 
    Through visual metaphor, political insight, and emotional clarity, Lena Elisabet builds a new framework—one that reclaims sovereignty without severing collaboration, that honors dignity without denying complexity. This is not a war manual. It is a strategy for peace—where power is redefined, beauty is reclaimed, and the female gaze becomes the compass for a new world.

    The Daughters Project - Oral...

    'But single woman-ness was also what made her strong, single woman-ness was also what made her ... just amazing.' 
    The Daughters Project explores what it means to grow up as a daughter in India, with a single woman as the centre of power and nurturance. Is the experience empowering? In stifling patriarchal societies like our own, do such daughters go on to inhabit a different sense of their place in the world? 
    To answer these, and other, questions Aditi Rao spends four years interviewing seven daughters of single mothers, across lines of class, caste, religion, ethnicity, region, queerness and age-including the daughters of a Kashmiri militant, a Devadasi, a Tibetan refugee and a child-bride from Bangladesh. Interwoven with these oral testimonies are those of girls who witnessed abuse or who chose their own gender identity, and Aditi's own experiences of being raised by a single mother, and as a single mother to an adopted child. 
    Written with empathy, wisdom and acceptance, The Daughters Project allows mothers, who are frequently relegated to the margins, to assume centre stage. It also shows us that the single-mother home is not worse off, and could, in some ways, even be better off than the two-parent household.
