Book Description
Prabha Sinha, an IT professional in Chennai, is plunged into a murky world of idol theft, murder, and betrayal after she gets a mysterious phone call one night from her old friend Sneha Pillai. As she races to find answers before the people she loves get hurt, she seeks the help of Jai Vadehra, a troubled young man with a tragic past, and the gorgeous DSP Gerard Ratnaraj of the Idol Wing, CID, whom she can't help but be drawn to. Their search takes them from Chennai's newsrooms and universities to the abandoned sepulchral shrine of a Chola queen in the heartland of Tamil Nadu, and nothing, and no one, is as they seem.

Book Description
Examining the automatic writing of the spiritualist séances, discursive technologies like the telegraph and the photograph, various genres and late nineteenth-century mental science, this book shows the failure of writers' attempts to use technology as a way of translating the supernatural at the fin de siècle. Hilary Grimes shows that both new technology and explorations into the ghostly aspects of the mind made agency problematic. When notions of agency are suspended, Grimes argues, authorship itself becomes uncanny. Grimes's study is distinct in both recognizing and crossing strict boundaries to suggest that Gothic literature itself resists categorization, not only between literary periods, but also between genres. Treating a wide range of authors - Henry James, Rudyard Kipling, Arthur Conan Doyle, George Du Maurier, Vernon Lee, Mary Louisa Molesworth, Sarah Grand, and George Paston - Grimes shows how fin-de-siècle works negotiate themes associated with the Victorian and Modernist periods such as psychical research, mass marketing, and new technologies. With particular attention to texts that are not placed within the Gothic genre, but which nevertheless conceal Gothic themes, The Late Victorian Gothic demonstrates that the end of the nineteenth century produced a Gothicism specific to the period.

Book Description
Of literature ancient and modern, Lady Dilke was an excellent judge, being keenly interested in philosophy as well as the history of art. Her books 'The Shrine of Death, and other Stories' (1886), 'The Shrine of Love, and other Stories' (1891), which are now seldom met with, were studies in the difficult vein of the prose fabulist, occasionally vague in sentiment and landscape, but effective in style. She had intended to republish and add to them. She was a great connoisseur of old books, particularly Elzevirs, Aldines, and early works of the Paris and Lyons presses, which she treasured with all the enthusiasm of a collector. "Ah, les livres, ils nous débordent, ils nous étouffent; nous périssons par les livres," was the complaint of Daudet, and so it is with many authors to-day who write masterly monographs, and neglect everything and everybody else. But there are some few rare spirits whose expressive sympathy and help for others lose nothing by their absorption in the study of the specialist, for whom the world is better, whose lives are more effective than their books, finer but less familiar aspects of their endowments. Of such was Lady Dilke. But the benefactions of her life are partly too well known and partly too intimate to admit of notice here. Yet a word concerning our personal debt cannot be withheld. We shall miss sadly the various and frequent attention, the wise counsel, the active help and encouragement, which she bestowed on The Athenæum. All too unready are we to say "Ave atque Vale" to the scholar and friend. Our loss is overwhelming, irreparable, but her gracious memory will keep us from "the sin of the unlit lamp, and the ungirt loin." --The Athenæum
