A version of this essay was published by the Deccan Herald at https://www.deccanherald.com/opinion/op-sindoor-how-we-won-and-lost-3566189There are no clear wins in wars these days, especially when terrorizing populations, or nuclear blackmail, is the goal. Pakistan's war manual may well be The Quranic Concept of War (1979) by Brigadier S K Malik, with its pithy statement: “Terror struck into the hearts of the enemies is not only a means, it is the end itself… Terror is not a means of imposing a decision on the enemy; it is the decision we wish to impose on him.” Notably, this book has a forward from General Zia-ul-Haq, their then President.In War From the Ground Up (2012), Emile Simpson, a former British Army officer, argues that modern wars often lack binary outcomes due to their political and informational complexity. Thus you could both win and lose a war, and that's what Operation Sindoor's outcome is.On the plus side, India won a clear military victory. India leveraged its integrated air defense, long-range missiles, global positioning satellites and drone decoy technology to achieve aerial dominance. This enabled India to make pinpoint strikes, unchallenged, first on terrorist enclaves, and then on Pakistani military sites, including, it is said, nuclear storage silos.India surprised most observers, because it was not only through expensive imported fighter jets that it deprecated Pakistan's offensive capabilities, but also indigenous drones, loitering munitions and cruise missiles. India needs strategic autonomy, because foreign suppliers, and supply chains, are not dependable. They keep the kill switches, and can turn off the spigot.India may well have ushered in a step-change in modern warfare itself, an age where drones and missiles tilt the balance rather than fighter jets, although the latter continue to remain key. Maybe it is sufficient to have slightly less advanced jets like the Tejas and the upcoming AMCA rather than procuring top-end F-35s, Su-57s etc. But there is a caveat: fighter jet engines. India must get its Kaveri engine working, for self-reliance.India also established strategic red lines: terrorist attacks will henceforth invite disproportionate and military retaliation because there is a military-terrorist nexus, with Pakistani soldiers cosplaying as terrorists, exchanging uniforms for long shirts, loose pants and beards, as a way of sub-critical harassment with plausible deniability.Furthermore, Pakistan's nuclear threat has been defanged. India's ability to hit their nuclear command center and two of the entrances to their storage facility in the Kirana Hills, suggest that their nuclear assets, if any, are disabled. Besides, there are rumors that warheads are not in Pakistani hands, but American or Chinese. That stands to reason, because otherwise Pakistan would likely have proliferated them to Iran, Turkey and non-state actors such as Hamas.So what are the negatives? The biggest is that this skirmish has not put even a dent in Pakistan's use of terrorism as state policy. Indeed, the next encounter with terrorists has already taken place in Kishtwar on May 22nd, exactly one month after Pahalgam, with one Indian soldier killed. Terrorism and war with India continue to be the raison d'etre of the Pakistani state.India comprehensively lost the narrative war. Operation Sindoor is portrayed in the Western media on Pakistan's terms (including the usual bogey of ‘nuclear war'), and their claims of shooting down 5-6 Indian jets are accepted as the truth. Many Pakistanis are embedded in Western media outlets, and that is not accidental. As they say, you can wake up a sleeping person, but not someone who is pretending to be asleep.In that sense, the all-party delegation visiting various capitals is an exercise in futility, because the West is not interested in India becoming a peer-level competitor: the G2 with China is bad enough, who wants a G3 with India as well? Also, just as the EAM told Europe that their (Ukraine) problem is a European problem, the West sees India's problems as not theirs.Pakistan's ability to internationalize the issue is a failure for India's stance that Kashmir is a bilateral issue. Fortunately, nobody actually cares, including the UN or its Security Council.A major failure for India was that it could have, but did not, capture any territory, which would have been a devastating blow to Pakistan's amour propre, and would have made “Field Marshal” Munir a laughing stock. India errs on the side of caution, and a large-scale intrusion does have problems with hostile civilians and stretched supply lines.But surely the Haji Pir Pass could have been recaptured: it was needlessly given away in Tashkent in 1966. It is a major route of infiltration for terrorists, its commanding heights dominate Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, and it cuts the Uri-Poonch distance from 282km to 56km.Alas, a resounding military victory has been morphed into a stalemate.795 words, May 27, 2025AI-generated podcast from notebookLM.google.com: Now AI-generated podcast in Malayalam from the same: This is a public episode.

India s Big Step Ahead - Modi to Approve Kaveri Engine Fund! | All About Kaveri Engine |SanjayDixit

A version of this essay has been published by firstpost.com at https://www.firstpost.com/opinion/shadow-warrior-india-fights-alone-narrative-wars-western-gaslighting-and-a-missed-opportunity-13891339.htmlFrom the 1st of May until the 20th I was traveling in the US, and thus had to depend on western media (mostly Twitter/X) for news about Operation Sindoor and the aftermath. It was self-evident that there was no point in reading things like the NYTimes, Wapo, the Economist, etc. because one look at their headlines confirmed that they were “manufacturing consent”.Soft PowerGiven the difference in X posts that I read in the US and those in India, I think the algorithms were deprecating posts for me in ways that are hard to detect. In other words, there is a narrative war where India has no say, but lots at stake. India's soft power is seriously wanting. Joseph Nye, the academic who popularized that phrase, passed away this week: following in his footsteps, it behooves India to make a concerted attempt to improve its story-telling.It faces an uphill battle, because Western, especially American, media has shown an ability to gaslight at scale in three major stories in the recent past: the COVID panic, the “Trump-is-a-Russian-stooge” meme, and the “Biden is mentally sharp as a tack” story. They are good at it, have no love lost for India, and so India needs a long-term plan to get its own propaganda story out, for instance developing an Al-Jazeera-style global footprint or an X-style social medium.The entire Western narrative, for self-serving purposes, continues to be against India, for good reason: they do not wish to see India grow into a peer-level competitor at the G3 level. In this, both China and the West are of one mind, and it shows. Besides, the West has every incentive to try to block India from becoming a major arms exporter: they would prefer India to continue to be one of the biggest importers, preferably from them.Narrative warfare is a Western specialty, as I said in Information Warfare, Narrative-Building: That Kind of Warfare. In addition to kinetic warfare, India needs to up its game here too. Narratives have real-life consequences.The Pakistanis have been quite successful in their own narratives, riding on Western media: here is an example from the Nikkei (which owns the Financial Times) from a Pakistani journalist. This is typical of the stories created by Pakistanis and amplified by western media: basically that India took a major hit, with five or six high-end aircraft downed by Pakistani/Chinese weaponry. The story was repeated so many times that it essentially became the Truth.A step change in aerial warfareMy personal belief is that India won a victory on the ground and in the air, humiliating Pakistan, attacking it at will and exposing its Chinese armaments as below-par. Some thoughtful neutral experts support this view: See Calibrated Force and the Future of Indian Deterrence. India also demonstrated surprising competence in the new age of electronics-based warfare. It may no longer be expensive fighter jets (and by extension, aircraft carriers) that tilt the balance, but missiles, drones and integrated air defense.This must be emphasized. There are periodic step-functions in warfare that render earlier, victorious technologies/processes less valuable: this is similar to disruptive innovation, where the ‘insurgent' firm nullifies the apparent advantages of the ‘incumbent' firm. Often that means a point of inflection. An example is the arrival of the longbow in medieval times that made hitherto unstoppable heavy cavalry stumble. Another is the arrival of air power itself.Today there may be another point of inflection. Experts have suggested that warfare going forward will be software-driven, including drone swarms that can autonomously reshape their formations (reminiscent of the murmurations of flocks of starlings). Presumably, there will be plenty of predictive AI built in as well. Given India's poor track record in software products, it was generally assumed that India would not do so well in such a new environment.In reality, there appears to have been a clever integration of indigenous and imported technology to create an “iron dome” of sorts against Pakistan's Chinese missiles, of which an advanced variant, PL-15, was apparently shot down intact.More interestingly, it appears that Lakshya and Banshee drones were programmed to masquerade as Rafales, Sukhois, etc. by emitting their radar signals, thus attracting enemy fire towards themselves. This might explain the claims of five or six Indian aircraft shot down by Pakistan, whereas in reality they may have simply shot down the phantom, mimic dronesThe implications are large: in effect, India was able to attack Pakistan at will: video evidence shows significant damage to terrorist sites in the first round, and to military sites in the second round, including to key Pakistani air bases, as well as, it is said, the entrance tunnel to the nuclear storage facilities in the Kirana Hills. Indian air dominance appears to have forced the Pakistanis to beg for US support to suggest a cessation of hostilities.This skirmish was proof in the heat of battle for India's indigenous weapons, especially the BrahMos (although of course that is a joint venture with Russia). It may result in a number of serious queries from prospective customers especially in Southeast Asia, who will be interested in battlefield performance against Chinese missiles and aircraft. This would be a win for India's arms industry.Conversely, there is a singular sore spot: fighter jets. For a variety of reasons, most especially the fact that the Kaveri engine has not been allowed to complete its testing and development phase, India is still dependent on others for advanced fighters. And this is just fine as far as they are concerned, because the Americans want to sell F-35s, the French want to sell more Rafales, and the Russians want to sell Su-57s.Here's a twitter comment by a military historian who suggests that India's fighter jets are inadequate. He deleted his further comment that indigenization is fine as industrial policy, but it doesn't work for advanced weaponry. This is a typically sniffy attitude towards India, which is grist to the mill for the Chandigarh Lobby's successful efforts to trash local weapons and gain lucrative middleman deals for foreign weapons.Strategic Dilemma: To push on or notThere is also a strategic dilemma. India has an unfortunate habit of wasting its soldiers' hard-won victories at the negotiating table due to bad political calculations. The epitome of this is of course, Indira Gandhi's 1971 give-away of 93,000 Pakistani PoWs in exchange for essentially… nothing. There is some reason to wonder if something similar happened in 2025 as well. A tactical victory was possibly converted into a stalemate, and the old era of hyphenation and the nuclear bogey has returned.What we saw in 2025 was that the Pakistanis were taken by surprise, and India had a massive advantage. But now that cat is out of the bag, Pakistanis and Chinese will regroup and figure out corrective tactics. Thus India has, to use an American expression, “shot its wad”, and the element of surprise is gone forever.The end game for India is the dissolution of Pakistan into four or five statelets, which, one hopes, will then concentrate on Pakistani Punjab as the root of all their troubles. In that case, they will keep each other occupied, and India can live in peace without regular terrorist attacks. Of course, that may be a pipe-dream, given the Ghazwa-e-Hind formula many entertain, but the collapse of the Pakistani state is anyway desirable for India.Should India have continued its offensive? Forget the murky issue of the nuclear assets in Sargodha. Should India have moved the Line of Control forward into some areas, perhaps into Gilgit-Baltistan (with Sharda Peeth and the Kishenganga) and up to the Jhelum River in Pak-occupied Jammu and Kashmir? The problem though, is that once you start moving past the border posts, you have hostile civilians to contend with, and your supply lines start getting stretched.Even though it is tragic to let go of an opportunity to thrash an enemy that's on the back foot, and Pakistan will inevitably use the truce to rearm itself and come back ever stronger (the Treaty of Hudaybiyah is not a meme in the Islamic world for nothing), it is not clear to me what India could have done to militarily make the LOC irrelevant and make Pakistan implode, especially in the context of American pushback.The role of the USWhy was there pressure from President Trump? One of the things I observed during my US stay is the total absence of DOGE and Elon Musk from the headlines after Trump's 100 days, very contrary to their ubiquity early on. Similarly, the security implications of Trump's recent embrace of Syria's President Al-Sharaa contradicts Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's views on Syria as evidenced by her tweets. Further, there are U-turns on tariffs.This means Trump is being mercurial as ever. Furthermore, there might be something to the idea that his family's embrace of crypto may have endeared Pakistan – which is making noises about supporting crypto at scale – to him. All this is red-pilling many about Trump. Indeed, he may be allowing short-term, commercial considerations to drive policy, which may return to haunt the US: that is exactly what Clinton, Bush, Obama et al did with respect to China.On the other hand, there are longer-term considerations, too. Pakistan is essentially a Potemkin nation, which has no particular reason to exist, other than it is being propped up. Initially, it was a British project for the Russian Great Game; then it was taken over by the US Deep State in order to fend off the Soviet Union. Pakistan was a “major non-NATO ally” (MNNA) according to Obama if I remember right, and earlier it was a member of CENTO and SEATO.The IMF loan to Pakistan, approved in the middle of the hostilities, is not surprising, either: this has happened before. In a way, it is a complicated money-laundering activity. Funds from somewhere (possibly Qatar) are channeled to Pakistan, which then buys American arms. Thus the Deep State Military Industrial Complex is the winner.With the end of the Afghanistan wars, Pakistan offers no obvious geographic and strategic value to the US. Unless, of course, the target is no longer Russia, but India. Perhaps in anticipation of its being a check on India, the US had helped Pakistan nuclearize, according to this archived article from the NYTimes: US and China Helped Pakistan Build Its Bomb, from a time when it was possibly more truthful. I am indebted to Brahma Chellaney for this link.This may suggest that Pakistan's nuclear ‘assets' are not theirs, but are managed by American crew. On the other hand, though, the greater possibility is that such assets are loaned by China. Pakistan is a fantastic force multiplier for China.Abhimanyu SyndromeThe bottom line, then, is that India is on its own: sort of an Abhimanyu Syndrome, with nobody to help. The most obvious ‘friend' is Japan (because of the China threat), but it is severely constrained by American red lines: see how there was not a murmur from the Quad after Pahalgam. India's very possible rise is in fact encouraging other powers to put it down: grow so much, but no farther.There really is no alternative for India but to industrialize, manufacture everything possible for its large internal market, and increase the level of strategic autonomy in everything it makes: no more dependence on third parties, which may feel free to use kill switches, or deny spares or components at will. In this round, India did surprisingly well with indigenous technology, and it has articulated a strategy of escalating deterrence. To put teeth into this, innovation at home must continue.Here's the AI-generated podcast about this episode from notebookLM.google.com: 1975 words, 22 May 2025 This is a public episode.

The text of Kuvempu's epic Kannada novel, Malegalalli Madumagalu (1967), and the recent translation, Bride in the Hills by Vanamala Viswanatha (Penguin Random House, 2024), will be discussed by an eminent panel of scholars, writers and the translator. Set in 1893 in the Malnad region of the Western Ghats with its majestic Sahyadri ranges, dense forests, and river Tunga, Kuvempu's Malegalalli Madumagalu (Bride in the Hills) describes the saga of not one young woman but many, of varied hues, who aspire for love and fulfilment in marriage, in a self-serving, male feudal order. An organic network of interrelated stories, the well-known Kannada writer Devanoora Mahadeva locates the novel in the epic tradition of the Mahabharata and Tolstoy's War and Peace. This woman-centric text weaves together the touching plight of young couples in love, such as Gutti and Timmi, from a Dalit community living on the ghats; Aita and Pinchalu, migrant labourers from below the ghats, and Mukundayya and Chinnamma from the land-owning Shudra caste. Fired from within by their love – the most powerful agent of change – these young people seek a life of freedom and dignity, leading to the transformation of the larger community. Their heartening stories are juxtaposed against the travails of hapless Nagakka and scheming Venkatanna, sickly Deyi and brute Chinkra, and gullible Kaveri and lecherous Devayya. All of them are, in different ways, up against the repressive regimes of the decadent landlords, who manipulate traditional feudal practices as well as the modern apparatus of a colonial state.  True to its claim as an epic novel, Kuvempu's text with its multiple narrative strands vividly enacts its mission statement in the epigraph: “Here, no one is important; no one is unimportant; nothing is insignificant!” Every sentient and insentient thing – the degenerate Chinkra, orphan Dharmu, Huliya the dog, Biri the cat, the evergreen forest, the Hulikal Peak – has a place and a purpose in this narrative. Imbued with an ecological consciousness, the novel offers a veritable biodiversity register of the Malnad region. Kuvempu presents a ‘view from below', a subaltern perspective which also takes in the world of the wealthy and powerful. Winner of the first Sahitya Akademi award in 1955 and the Jnanpith in 1967, Kuvempu (Kuppali Venkatappa Puttappa 1904-1994) inaugurated the non-brahmin era in modern Kannada writing. Kuvempu's versatile oeuvre includes a vast body of poetry, plays, novels, children's writing, essays and an autobiography. While his poetic epic ‘Shri Ramayana Darshanam' is a radical rewriting of the Valmiki epic drawing from the Jaina tradition, the two novels, The Kanur House (made into a film by Girish Karnad) and Bride in the Hills, are modern novels set in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Inspired by Tolstoy's expansive canvas and Tagore's unique Indian ethos, this first significant Shudra writer and an iconic figure in Kannada culture, has sculpted an entirely regional epic novel in Bride in the Hills.

I've come to realize that the best way to hit the ground running as an immigrant in a new country isn't necessarily the usual things people talk about—finding a job to keep you going while applying to 500 roles weekly and the like. The most impactful things you'll need to do when settling down are mindset-related. Keep an open mind. Be adaptable. Drop any sense of entitlement. And be willing to reset and start from the beginning. One caveat, though: don't lose your identity in the process. After 12+ years in Canada, Kaveri Srivastava is well-placed to speak about this mindset shift. She joined me on The Newcomers Podcast to chat about:* Her hit-the-ground running playbook* Dealing with survival mentality as an immigrant* Balancing the need to experience new things while saving for the future* Her Indian heritage, and more. My biggest takeaway: While it's cool to experience new things, you should form the habit of paying your future self first. Did you find this interesting?

Rahastot ovat sijoittajille helppo väylä ulottuvuuksiin, joihin pääsy vaatisi muuten uuden opettelua, timanttista riskinsietokykyä ja usein myös isompia rahallisia panostuksia. Automatisoitu säännöllinen säästäminen rahastoon puolestaan on kuin personal trainerin selkeä treeniohjelma - päätös aloittamisesta ja rahaston valinnasta pitää tehdä itse, mutta sen jälkeen homma rullaa rahaston sanelemana.  Jaksossa selvitetään rahastosijoittamisen salat perusteista alkaen: mitä rahastoista pitäisi tietää ennen kuin niihin sijoittaa ja miten valita itselle sopivimmat rahastot? Millaisia vastuullisia rahastoja on olemassa? Millaisia kuluja rahastosijoittamiseen liittyy? Entä miksi rahastosijoittajien salkut ovat usein hyvin hajautettuja?  Jasminin ja Kaisan vieraana on Danske Bankin sijoituspäällikkö Timo Turtiainen. Jaksossa Timo kertoo vinkkinsä, joiden avulla sinäkin pääset kiinni rahastosijoittamiseen!

इस हफ़्ते पुलियाबाज़ी पर हमारे दो बेंगलुरु निवासी होस्ट ‘कारे मेघा, कारे मेघा' का आलाप लगाते पाए गए। पानी कब बरसेगा ये तो पता नहीं, पर इस पानी की समस्या में छिपे कुछ पब्लिक पॉलिसी के पाठ प्रणय ने ख़ोज निकाले। जब किसी संसाधन की कमी हो तो उसकी सही कीमत लगाने से  उसका सही उपयोग निश्चित किया जा सकता है, ये तो पुलियाबाज़ी के श्रोता जानते ही होंगे। आज की पुलियाबाज़ी में नज़र दौड़ाते हैं बेंगलुरु में मिल रहे पानी की सही कीमत और उसे कौन चुकाता है इसके बारे में भी। इसी साथ पब्लिक पॉलिसी समझने के एक फ्रेमवर्क विकसैलियन कनेक्शन को भी समझ लेते हैं। As the graph below shows, the silicon valley of India is experiencing a heat wave. This is going to exacerbate the ongoing water crisis. While many find the solution in drawing more from Kaveri, Pranay analyses the issue through the framework of Wicksellian Connection—a public policy framework that looks for an overlap between the three aspects of utilising a scarce resource. Who decides? Who gets the benefit? Who pays for it? How does Bengaluru's water supply fare when tested on this framework? What are the consequences of such a Wicksellian Disconnection and how can it be resolved? This and more on today's Puliyabaazi.We discuss:* A public policy view to water crisis* A Wicksellian Disconnection* Subsidising the elite* Water usage in Singapore* Solution based on this framework* Where to apply this framework?Readings:India Policy Watch #1: A Wicksellian Disconnection by Pranay KotasthaneWell Labs Bengaluru Urban Water Balance ReportBangalore Water Crisis: Marginal pricing of water, subsidies to poor may curb water woes by Anupam ManurListen to related Puliyabaazi:भारत: एक भूजल सभ्यता। India: A Groundwater Civilisation.कावेरी जल विवाद को कैसे सुलझाएं?

When the quest for comfort meets the call for inclusivity, magic happens in the form of fashion that embraces every curve. Kaveri Lalchand, an acclaimed all-linen fashion designer, joins us to unfold her journey of crafting a brand that's become a beacon of body positivity. Her story, starting from a personal need for plus-sized, free-flowing garments, has blossomed into a mission to empower women, not just through the clothes they wear but also through the financial independence she fosters among her female-led team.Our conversation takes you through the intimate relationship between our emotions and the clothes we choose, where fabric becomes a language of self-expression and healing. Kaveri and I discuss the delicate balance required to turn a passion project into a sustainable business, navigating through self-doubt and the ever-present risk of burnout. We also tackle the commitment needed from fashion brands to move beyond tokenistic nods to body positivity and actually cater to the diverse tapestry of body types that make up our society.Closing with an impactful reflection on the psychological restraints we impose on ourselves—embodied by the image of an elephant tethered by mere twine—we contemplate the transformative power of self-acceptance. This episode is an ode to authenticity, not just in design but in the way we choose to live and perceive ourselves. Kaveri's message is clear: true style emerges when we honor our unique forms and stories, a philosophy she lives out through her enchanting linen creations. Join us for an inspiring narrative that weaves self-love into every stitch and seam.#InclusiveFashion #BodyPositivity #KaveriLalchand #LinenFashion #EmpoweringWomen #SelfExpression #HealingThroughFashion #SustainableBusiness #SelfAcceptance #FashionDesign #FinancialIndependence #EmotionalConnection #PassionProject #DiverseBodyTypes #AuthenticityInDesign #SelfLoveJourney #FashionEmpowerment #Podcast #DetangleByKinjal #TrueStyle #InspiringNarrative #EnchantingCreations

We're seeing what is being called one of the worst droughts in recent years in Karnataka. Bangalore has become unliveable. Bangalore has access to only half the amount of water that it needs on a daily basis. There's no water in many high and mid-rise buildings, gated colonies. The government is rationing out water tankers, construction using the adjacent Kaveri river is banned, new bore wells are being dug and so on.  In this episode of Climate Emergency, Suno India's Sneha Richhariya speaks to Shreya Nath, who heads the urban water program at Well Labs, which is an environmental research organisation based in Bengaluru. Last year, Well Labs conducted a study on ‘How water flows through Bengaluru?' to understand where is Bengaluru's water, how much of it is there and in what condition.See sunoindia.in/privacy-policy for privacy information.

कावेरी जल विवाद सुप्रीम कोर्ट के फैसले के बावजूद अभी भी जारी है। भारत की आर्थिक प्रगति के साथ पानी की ज़रूरत भी बढ़ रही है। हमारे जल संसाधनों के संरक्षण के लिए शायद हमें पानी को एक अलग नज़रिये से देखना अब ज़रूरी हो गया है। आज की पुलियाबाज़ी एक नए समाधान पर जिससे पानी का बेहतर उपयोग और बेहतर संरक्षण मुमकिन हो पाए। Despite the Supreme Court verdict in 2018, the Kaveri water sharing dispute between Karnataka and Tamil Nadu has remained unresolved. As India continues to grow and its water needs increase, we need a new approach that can enable efficient use of water and also incentivize water conservation. This week on Puliyabaazi, we discuss one such novel approach.

Jennifer Chow, Rob Osler and Harini NagendraShow NotesOn this episode we finish our interviews with nominees for the Agatha Awards which will begiven at Malice Domestic this year.We first talked with Jennifer Chow who is nominated for her book “Death By Bubble Tea”(Berkley) for Best Contemporary Novel.When Yale Yee discovers her cousin Celine is visiting from Hong Kong, she is obliged to playtour guide to a relative she hasn't seen in twenty years. Not only that, but her father thinks it's awonderful idea for them to bond by running a food stall together at the Eastwood Village NightMarket. Yale hasn't cooked in years, and she hardly considers Celine's career as a social mediainfluencer as adequate experience, but because she's just lost her job at her local bookstore,she feels she has no choice.Yale and Celine serve small dishes and refreshing drinks, and while business is slow, iteventually picks up thanks to Celine's surprisingly useful marketing ideas. They're quite shockedthat their bubble tea, in particular, is a hit--literally--when one of their customers turns up dead.Yale and Celine are prime suspects due to the gold flakes that Celine added to the sweet drinkas a garnish. Though the two cousins are polar opposites in every way, they must work togetherto find out what really happened to the victim or the only thing they'll be serving is time.We talked then with Rob Osler who is nominated for a Best First Novel for his book “Devil'sChew Toy” (Level Best).Seattle teacher and part-time blogger Hayden McCall wakes sporting one hell of a shiner, withthe police knocking at his door. It seems that his new crush, dancer Camilo Rodriguez, hasgone missing and they suspect foul play. What happened the night before? And where isCamilo?Determined to find answers, pint-sized, good-hearted Hayden seeks out two of Camilo's friends—Hollister and Burley—both lesbians and both fiercely devoted to their friend. From them,Hayden learns that Camilo is a “Dreamer” whose parents had been deported years earlier, andwhose sister, Daniela, is presumed to have returned to Venezuela with them. Convinced that thecops won't take a brown boy's disappearance seriously, the girls join Hayden's hunt for Camilo.The first clues turn up at Barkingham Palace, a pet store where Camilo had taken a part-timejob. The store's owner, Della Rupert, claims ignorance, but Hayden knows something is up. Andthen there's Camilo's ex-boyfriend, Ryan, who's suddenly grown inexplicably wealthy. WhenHayden and Hollister follow Ryan to a secure airport warehouse, they make a shockingconnection between him and Della—and uncover the twisted scheme that's made both of themrich.The trail of clues leads them to the grounds of a magnificent estate on an island in PugetSound, where they'll finally learn the truth about Camilo's disappearance—and the fate of hisfamily.And Finally, we talked with Harini Nagendra who is nominated for a Best First Novel for her book:The Bangladore Detective's Club” (Constable)Solving crimes isn't easy.Add a jealous mother-in-law and having to wear a flowing sari into the mix, and you've got aproblem.When clever, headstrong Kaveri moves to Bangalore to marry doctor Ramu, she's resignedherself to a quiet life.But that all changes the night of the party at the Century Club, where she escapes to the gardenfor some peace - and instead spots an uninvited guest in the shadows. Half an hour later, theparty turns into a murder scene.When a vulnerable woman is connected to the crime, Kaveri becomes determined to save herand launches a private investigation to find the killer, tracing his steps from an illustrious brothelto an Englishman's mansion. She soon finds that sleuthing in a sari isn't as hard as it seemswhen you have a talent for maths, a head for logic and a doctor for a husband.And she's going to need them all as the case leads her deeper into a hotbed of danger, seditionand intrigue in Bangalore's darkest alleyways . . .We congratulate each and every nominee and wish them all the best of luck with their writingand in life.TRIVIALast week's question was:Which author used the following pseudonyms in their career.

episode 148 "The Vanishing Kodavas" Mushrooms & Monsoons With Kaveri Ponappa Introduction Hello and welcome to the February episode of The Storied Recipe. I'm here today with an episode that was well worth waiting for.Kaveri Ponappa wrote The Vanishing Kodvas - a deep cultural study of her people group who were devoted above all else to the rolling hills and deep, dense forests of their land, Kodagu. The Kodavas remain in existence today although they joined the nation of India in 1956. The origins of this remote warlike people are unknown and their history is purely oral - they have no written language. Against those odds, Kaveri embarked on the immense past of not only recording, but understanding, her people's culture and customs. They keep many of these customs intact today - not by isolating themselves, but rather by inviting and encouraging neighbors and descendents who live in the modern world to return, celebrate, and learn. In addition to stories from her people and a discussion of her laborious writing process, today Kaveri is sharing a delicious mushroom curry recipe with us. This dish is emblematic of all that is vanishing (or is in danger of vanishing) - the customs of the Kodavas, monsoon season, and fields covered with mushrooms and moss as far as the eye could see. Welcome to Kaveri and thank YOU for being here to listen. Highlights Why Kaveri wears saris almost exclusively - the art and siginificance of making sarisWho are the Kodavas and why are they vanishingWarlike traditions that persist in customsThe stunning hills and forests of Kodagu and land as the highest ideal in ancient KodavaWomen's role in this ancient people group, including her aunt and motherKodava as home to KaveriThe importance of land laws to preserving a way of lifeThe significance of community when maintaining their traditionsHow the Kodavas were betrayed by their ownMushroom Curry - the one secret ingredientHer grandmother's kitchen with the giant wood fireplace and full of earthenwareIs flavor different cooked in earthenware?Mushrooms that looked like snowfall, mushrooms that were hallucinogenicDrastic changes from a monsoon season to barely a monsoon seasonThe medicinal plant that grew wild in Kodagu during mosoon seasonBook writing process: Combining academic/historical  and folk knowledgeWhat is at stake if the Kodavas vanish entirely?

If you'd like a fresh take on 1920s historical mysteries, check out “The Bangalore Detectives Club” by Harini Nagendra, which takes readers to India. Newly married to a doctor, Kaveri is juggling her own ambitions to get a degree in mathematics with society's pressure to be a good wife. When a murder occurs, Kaveri is compelled to investiagate. Besides catching the culprit, she also creates a unique position for herself in her new world.

We discuss chapters 1-7 of Absolution by Murder, the first novel in the dark-ages mystery extravaganza that is the Sister Fidelma series by Peter Tremayne. Taking place at the historical Synod of Whitby, where the churches of the world met to discuss the terms of their ongoing belief, under the watchful eye of King Oswy of Northumbria. When Sister Etain is killed just hours after announcing her marriage, Sister Fidelma of Kildare is called forth to investigate crime, risking her neck to get justice for her old friend and mentor.We also speak with Harini Nagendra about her debut Crime Fiction release, The Bangalore Detectives Club. Telling the story of Kaveri, a young woman in Bengaluru, newly wed, attempting to solve crimes in her newfound social circle without being outcast from it.

When clever, headstrong Kaveri moves to Bangalore to marry doctor Ramu, she's resigned herself to a quiet life.But that all changes the night of the party at the Century Club, where she escapes to the garden for some peace - and instead spots an uninvited guest in the shadows. Half an hour later, the party turns into a murder scene.When a vulnerable woman is connected to the crime, Kaveri becomes determined to save her and launches a private investigation to find the killer, tracing his steps from an illustrious brothel to an Englishman's mansion. She soon finds that sleuthing in a sari isn't as hard as it seems when you have a talent for maths, a head for logic and a doctor for a husband.And she's going to need them all as the case leads her deeper into a hotbed of danger, sedition and intrigue in Bangalore's darkest alleyways . . .Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.
