Description:
WINNER OF THE 2025 INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE
In the twelve stories of Heart Lamp, Banu Mushtaq exquisitely captures the everyday lives of women and girls in Muslim communities in southern India. Published originally in the Kannada language between 1990 and 2023, praised for their dry and gentle humour, these portraits of family and community tensions testify to Mushtaq's years as a journalist and lawyer, in which she tirelessly championed women's rights and protested all forms of caste and religious oppression.
Written in a style at once witty, vivid, colloquial, moving and excoriating, it's in her characters - the sparky children, the audacious grandmothers, the buffoonish maulvis and thug brothers, the oft-hapless husbands, and the mothers above all, surviving their feelings at great cost - that Mushtaq emerges as an astonishing writer and observer of human nature, building disconcerting emotional heights out of a rich spoken style. Her opus has garnered both censure from conservative quarters as well as India's most prestigious literary awards; this is a collection sure to be read for years to come.
'Heart Lamp is something genuinely new for English readers. A radical translation which ruffles language, to create new textures in a plurality of Englishes. It challenges and expands our understanding of translation. These beautiful, busy, life-affirming stories rise from Kannada, interspersed with the extraordinary socio-political richness of other languages and dialects. It speaks of women's lives, reproductive rights, faith, caste, power and oppression.'

Durable protection
Size: King
I've been using the Beckham Hotel Collection Mattress Protector for about a month now, and I find the cleaning process quite straightforward. I simply toss it in the washing machine on a gentle cycle, then tumble dry it on low, and it comes out without any issues of shrinking or tearing. However, I do find it a bit tricky to handle during spills or accidents. Since the protector is only leak-resistant and not fully waterproof, I’ve had instances where liquid seeped through to my mattress, so it needs to be removed immediately.
For added protection, I highly recommend using this mattress protector in combination with a mattress pad. Overall, it fits well, provides peace of mind, and proves to be durable. I would recommend it for those without pets or kids, as it offers leak-proof rather than waterproof protection.
