1 Root Leaf Fire (Penguin India)
Co-authored by chef and food stylist Sheeba de Souza and integrated-lifestyle medicine expert Luke Coutinho, the book offers a realistic take on everyday eating, blending science-backed health principles with deeply personal, intuitive, flavour-driven everyday cooking. Built on three simple pillars — Root (foundation), Leaf (daily practice), Fire (the act of cooking) — it is a refreshingly grounded guidebook to staying healthy that feels achievable, not aspirational.
2 The Sailor’s Farewell (Tara Books)
In 1910, Brazilian sea captain Joao Candido – also known as the Black Admiral — was one of the leaders of a revolt of sailors that changed the course of Brazilian history. It ended tragically, but his fate — tied to his call for resistance — went on to empower future generations. Brazilian author and artist Flavia Bonfim tells this hero’s story by using poetry, imagery and historic images to create cyanotypes.
3 Vikram and Vetala: A Transformative Retelling (HarperCollins India)
Master storyteller Douglas J Penick reimagines the legendary Baital Pachchisi with lyrical depth, insight, and a blend of horror, humour, and philosophical intrigue. He seamlessly expands this classic frame by weaving in the origins of the Vetāla, and crafting a compelling overarching narrative that culminates in a powerful conclusion. This is a treat for fans of Gothic and horror fiction.
