A collection of poetry that describes all of the things people told a woman to keep her mouth shut about. The things that tormented her peace and kept her awake at night. The only way to heal from them was to use the pen to release them from her mind

Ce conte dont l'origine se perd dans la nuit des temps et que nous trouvons ins r dans la grande pop e du po te Vyasa nous dit comment l'h ro sme guid par la sagesse permet deux tres cras s sous le poids de circonstances contraires d' merger victorieux d'une preuve terrible. Cette histoire qui commence et finit comme un conte de f es est tout sauf un r cit loign de la vraie vie . Au contraire, il nous est pr sent par le po te lui-m me comme une histoire contenant quelques-unes des v rit s les plus profondes et les plus utiles de la vie.Oui, c'est un conte ravissant dans lequel peines et joies sont retrac es de fa on d licate, un conte travers d'une grande tendresse et d'une immense compassion pour la fragilit de l' tre humain et pour ses souffrances. Mais c'est aussi une parabole dont les symboles puissants nous font voir que les circonstances de la vie ne sont rien, que la conscience est tout...La collection Contes et l gendes de l'Inde s'est donn pour but d'entrouvrir une porte qui permette au lecteur fran ais de p n trer dans l'univers fascinant, mais infiniment complexe, de la sensibilit indienne. L'esprit moderne est parfois d con-cert dans les histoires hindoues par la superposition de mondes diff rents et les manquements la r gle de vraisemblance si ch re nos classiques. Ces caract ristiques ne sont pas le fruit d'un esth tisme gratuit, elles sont les marques d'une mentalit qui tente toujours de d crire la vie terrestre non pas dans ce qu'elle montre, mais dans ce qu'elle cache, et qui voit l'action humaine comme constamment entour e et influenc e par d'autres forces, que nous pourrions qualifier de cosmiques. Pour l'esprit grec la lumi re du soleil est l'objet de ses d lices, pour l'esprit hindou c'est un voile dor qui lui cache des merveilles ardemment d sir es. Nous ne pr tendons pas faire ici oeuvre d' rudits ou d'indianistes, mais seulement de sugg rer, travers certaines histoires pr sent es dans une langue aussi simple que possible, cette cl indispensable une compr hension du g nie indien.Note de l' diteur pour la version imprim e: Afin d' tre plus agr able lors de la lecture, cet ouvrage est en format Beau Livre.

This tale whose origin is lost in the mists of time and which we find inserted in the great epic of the poet Vyasa tells us how heroism guided by wisdom allows two beings crushed under the weight of contrary circumstances to emerge victorious from a terrible ordeal.This story that begins and ends like a fairy tale, however, is anything but a story removed from "real life". Rather, it is presented to us by the poet himself as a story containing some of life's deepest and most useful truths. Indeed, it is a delightful tale in which sorrows and joys are delicately traced, a tale crossed by great tenderness and immense compassion for the fragility of human beings and for their sufferings. But it is also a parable whose powerful symbols make us see that the circumstances of life are nothing, that conscience is everything...The series Tales and Legends of India was originally started with the aim of providing the modern reader with a glimpse of the fascinating, but infinitely complex world of Indian sensibility. Today's mind is at times taken aback by the superimposition of different worlds in the old Indian stories. This characteristic is not the fruit of a labored aestheticism, but is the sign of a mentality that always tries to describe terrestrial life not in outer terms, but in terms of what it hides. It is a mentality that sees the field of human action as always surrounded and influenced by other forces that one could qualify as cosmic in nature. For the Greek spirit the light of the sun is its natural atmosphere, but for the ancient Indian spirit the sun is a golden veil that hides wonders that it desires ardently to possess. Ours is not a scholarly venture but an attempt to suggest through certain stories, told in as living and simple a language as possible, a key to understanding the culture and genius of India.Publisher's note for the printed edition: in order to be more enjoyable during reading, this book is in 5" x 8" format. In the same spirit, the paper is cream-colored, which causes less fatigue to the eyes than white paper. All our publications are carefully crafted, both in terms of typography as well as design.Publisher's note for the Kindle edition: our Kindle publications are carefully crafted, with Table of Contents, Index, Footnotes and References when applicable.

Arcadia is the entrance to the awe-inspiring and terrifying realm of Dionysus, the Greek god of ecstasy, the Eleusinian Mysteries and Death. Julia, a solitary writer, disenchanted with life, discovers a pagan world on a side-street theatre of London's West End, a world packed with riddles and oracles ruled by the irresistible sensuality of a living god. A murder and a cryptic telephone call lead her to Daniel, the incarnation of the god Dionysus. Allured by his fascinating and indomitable personality Julia is placed on a stage of mythological magnitude enthused by desire, the power of tragedy and the invigorating impulse of the heroic. To stay in Arcadia Julia will have to face an enticing and ominous truth: Only those who are willing to break free and trespass the forbidden territory of the gods can defeat death."When a god breaks into our lives and fills us with a desire to penetrate and be penetrated by the Ineffable, life becomes an adventure. In the face of death's inexorable triumph, the gods offer us a pact of mutual fascination. Only heroes can feel the power of their lucid gaze.""In Arcadia Samantha Devin succeeds in resurrecting myths we thought forgotten. It is a powerful, invigorating novel driven by the energy of philosophical thought." JAVIER SIERRA.Samantha Devin is the author of Black Bile and Heroica.

"Word by word, like in a spell, the enigmatic mystery transcends the pages and bewitches the reader. An intense, mesmerising, well-crafted plot."On a thunderous night, Max arrives in Shimst, a remote village in the north of Scotland. Four bizarre words welcome him at the entrance of the seemingly deserted town: "Do What Thou Wilt". The next morning Max learns that the village is cut off from the outside world because of the storm. Confined within the mountains Max is troubled by visions of a past he doesn't recognize as his own. Something or someone is plotting against him, twisting his sense of reality. What terrifies him most is that the inner space is becoming as menacing as the outer space. He feels that his mind, and even his soul, are no longer a known territory, that shelter is out of reach... With its unnerving atmosphere and brilliant psychological probing, Black Bile captures the imagination of readers who soon begin to fear that there is no way back once they have plunged into the depths of their unconscious."Samantha Devin weaves each paragraph with the icy calm of a Patricia Highsmith, as she builds a Gothic structure of inner horror. Black Bile brings elements to the labyrinths of our psyche that recall the obsessions of Ernesto S bato and Edgar Allan Poe." DIARIO DE OAXACA"A disturbing stroll through the abysses of madness. Black Bile is a disconcerting novel shrouded in a dark, angst-ridden atmosphere. The thread of the plot unravels into a page-turner that grips the reader from the first paragraph. Samantha Devin subtly handles the genre, sustaining the reader's interest with twists and turns that become totally addictive." EUROPA PRESS"Getting to know reality becomes our worst nightmare." EL PAIS"Samantha Devin publishes her first novel in which she closes in on the vertiginous boundaries of mental illness and interrogates the very concept of reality." EL MUNDOSamantha Devin is the author of Arcadia, A Modern Tragedy and Heroica. Her novels have been translated into English and German.
