Recollections & Further Recollections of a Happy Life: Being the Autobiography of Marianne North

Today Marianne North is remembered for the gallery in Kew Garden named after her. Alongside Isabella Bird, she was the most popular and well-known lady-traveller in nineteenth-century England. She travelled to all parts of the world and left numerous botanical drawings. Unlike Isabella Bird, however, she did not leave any travel records and only the three volumes reprinted here are the textual source of her travelling. Compiled by her sister, these volumes are more like a chronological history of Marianne North's travelling than a biography and provide indispensable material for those studying Victorian lady-travellers.

Silence That Speaks: Short Stories by Indian Muslim Women
This ground-breaking anthology brings together 38 short stories culled from<br>over a century of writing by Muslim women from colonial and postcolonial<br>India. Selected from different Indian languages, it includes fascinating stories<br>by celebrated and emerging authors. It also excavates stories from early women's<br>journals such as Tehzeeb-e-Niswan, Saogat, and Indian Ladies' Magazine.<br>Written in different styles, modes, and forms, the stories deconstruct cultural<br>essentialism often involved in imagining Muslim womanhood and reflect upon<br>the diversity of imagined and lived experiences. They challenge sundry labels, <br>explore intersections of identities, debunk several myths, and demonstrate how<br>the authors navigate the world of voices and silences. Ranging from imaginary<br>geographies to topographies of Muslim ghettos, most of these powerful stories<br>narrate the spaces that Muslim women inhabit, and delineate their courage, <br>desires, freedom, struggle, and myriad subjectivities.
