Twelve short stories, each being a unique interpretation of one of the elements - water, earth, fire and air, will take you into places where fantasy mixes with reality. Reflective, emotional, sometimes happy, sometimes dark - they all leave room for the reader's imagination. ****** "I said that the book was great, so she'd leave me alone" - H. Oshiro (Author's boyfriend) "This book can be worn as a hat" - J. Francis (Author's friend) "Reading it will make your day shorter" - M. Kocik (Author's friend) "tl;dr" - Probably some mean Internet troll after reading this book in the future

"Dristikona" is an anthology of narratives woven through the lens of an Indian Globetrotter, spanning across memories scattered across the globe. These tales are deeply personal, intricately interwoven with the artistry of people I've encountered, engaged with, or been regaled about. As I traversed each fleeting moment, others embarked on their own unique journeys of perception, encapsulating the world through their distinct viewpoints. With this collection, I aspired to craft a captivating mosaic that celebrates the rich diversity of perspectives, encompassing a multitude of experiences and lessons. Some of these stories are ingeniously reframed to offer glimpses from another's vantage point, transforming into intriguing exercises in empathy and understanding.

This book presents research findings on the overall process of storytelling as a social event in Japanese everyday conversations focusing on the relationship between a story and surrounding talks, the social and cultural aspects of the participants, and the tellability of conversational stories. Focusing on the participants' verbal and nonverbal behavior and their use of linguistic devices, the chapters describe how the participants display their orientation to the a) embeddedness of the story in the conversation, b) their views of past events, c) their knowledge about the story content and elements, and d) their social circumstances, and how these four elements are relevant for a story becoming worth telling and sharing. The book furthers the sociolinguistic analysis of conversational storytelling by describing how the participants' concerns about social circumstances as members of a particular community, specifically their role relationships and interpersonal relationships with others, influence the shape of their storytelling.

These fictional secret memoirs, set mainly during the Cold War of the 1980s, tell the story of Sir Ralph Martens and his rise through the ranks of 'The Department' a largely secretive branch of the British Government. The Department's remit was to maintain a constant level of low-level fear amongst the population, thus enabling their manipulation through the media. As he neared the top of the hierarchy, Sir Ralph was entrusted with darker secrets of international importance. His fine-tuned political senses informed him that change was in the air. By the late 1980s, he knew a dramatic shift on the world stage was expected, even imminent; but the low-key manner in which it happened surprised everyone. He wanted his memoirs published posthumously because he wanted to create the biggest stink in British political history. He wanted to tell the truth.
