Things We Don’t See | From Chasing Butterflies and Stories of Ghosts to Navigating Corporate Boardrooms and Global Strategy | A Memoir by LC Singh

Things We Don’t See is the story of a boy from a small village who dared to dream beyond what he could see. It’s a journey powered by imagination, shaped by setbacks, fueled by questions about life, existence, and what it means to matter. From chasing butterflies and stories of ghosts to navigating corporate boardrooms and global strategy, L.C. Singh takes us through a life of sharp contrasts—rural innocence to global ambition, failure to recognition, longing to stillness. It’s a deeply human tale of becoming someone in the world’s eyes, only to discover that true action comes when it aligns with one’s purpose.

Told with honesty and quiet strength, this memoir explores the unseen threads that guide us—our inner drive, our curiosities, and our need to find peace not just in what we do, but in who we are.
At the edge of all ambition and all inquiry, he found what he wasn’t chasing: stillness.

The Yellow Metaphor

The Yellow Metaphor gathers over three decades of Jiban Narah’s shimmering poems, offering a powerful voice from Assam and India’s North-east. Steeped in Mising and Assamese lore, his verses carry the Brahmaputra’s memory, the ache of displacement and the quiet rebellions of longing.

Nature, myth, politics and desire braid into incandescent reflections on the human spirit. Translated with luminous care by Anindita Kar, this landmark collection reveals a tender, unflinching, metaphor-rich imagination that lingers long after reading.

Usne Bulaya Tha. . . / उसने बुलाया था. . .

उसने बुलाया था रहस्य-रोमांच से भरपूर एक रोमांचक कथा है, जिसमें सच और झूठ की सीमा बार‑बार बदलती है। लगातार होती हत्याएँ, जिनमें न कोई गवाह, न हथियार, न सबूत। पुलिस के पास केवल अनुमान और असहायता है। साथ ही चलता है एक तनावपूर्ण कोर्टरूम ड्रामा, जहाँ हर सुनवाई में पुलिस चौंकाने वाले खुलासे करती है। मामला इतना अधिक उलझना शुरु होता है कि हत्या का एक अदद मामला पूरे देश का सबसे सनसनीखेज़ मामला बन जाता है। हर पेशी के साथ सामने आता है एक नया पीड़ित, एक नई हत्या और एक नया रहस्य। हालाँकि यह उपन्यास काल्पनिक है, लेकिन इसमें घुला दर्द वास्तविक है—हर उस लड़की का, जिसने उत्पीड़न सहा है और हर उस व्यक्ति का, जो किसी बेटी, बहन या पत्नी के दर्द को महसूस कर सकता है। सस्पेंस, थ्रिल और कोर्टरूम टेंशन से भरा यह उपन्यास पाठक को बाँधे रखता है।
