Realism and the Novel
Realism and the Novel combines arguments about realism's emergence in the European eighteenth and nineteenth centuries with essays on its persistence throughout the world and into the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Moving away from a diffusionist account of culture - one where the realist novel is understood to have an autonomous national development in the West that then spreads across the globe - Realism and the Novel focuses, instead, on the ways the relationship between center and periphery informs both realism's origins and its continued relevance. At the same time, this collection takes seriously the semi-autonomy of literary form; the realist inheritance is not only an imposition. Rather, in its multiple incarnations, the realist novel has shown itself to be an exceptionally varied and multi-faceted form for representing the disparate social worlds of imperial modernity.

Reading Literature and Chronic Pain
This valuable and insightful study into chronic pain and its treatment advances a striking analysis of the complex phenomenon of chronic pain, also attesting to the importance of the medical humanities in addressing urgent questions that medical science alone cannot resolve. The primary purpose of this book is twofold. First, to demonstrate empirically - against a conceptual background drawn from multiple disciplines and knowledge bases (historical, medical, neurobiological, psychological, socio/anthropological) - how an apparently 'soft' intervention such as literary reading can effectively combat symptoms of a condition as intractable as chronic pain. Second, to explore what this evidence tells us about pain (as a lived experience as well as a condition in urgent need of new treatment options) and about literature and the reading of fiction and poetry as therapeutic influences in contemporary health and healthcare, most particularly in alleviating the (often severe) mental health difficulties with which chronic pain is almost universally associated. Based on unique empirical research with people who are living with chronic pain, this book is the first of its kind to demonstrate the value of literature and literary reading both as a discourse for understanding and 'finding' pain and as an intervention in its treatment.

I Sew Myself Into The Womb of Soil
I Sew Myself Into the Womb of Soil is a fearless and fiercely original work of poetry that delves deep into the inner cosmos of the human psyche. Written in free verse, this collection is a visceral journey through selfhood, sorrow, rebellion, transcendence, and truth. With language both raw and poetic, the author strips bare the layers of identity, society, and perception - confronting the reader with uncomfortable questions and intimate revelations.Each poem in this collection resonates like a psychological excavation - unearthing contradictions, critiquing cultural myths, and exposing the fragile boundaries between love and loss, mind and body, illusion and reality. With lyrical intensity, the poet explores what it means to exist in a world where beauty is commodified, truth is manipulated, and the soul longs to return to nature's embrace.From existential despair to spiritual resilience, from erotic mysticism to socio-political critique, the book spans an astonishing range of thought and emotion. It challenges traditional structures - both literary and societal - and instead offers a rich, nonlinear, and layered experience that reflects the chaos and clarity of modern existence.For readers of Franz Kafka, Rumi, Allen Ginsberg, or Sylvia Plath - or for anyone drawn to the unapologetic introspection of contemporary poetry - I Sew Myself Into the Womb of Soil is a compelling, soul-stirring work that refuses to conform and dares to feel.
