RUPA CLASSICS: THE MAN WHO DIED
₨ 184D. H. Lawrence’s The Man Who Died is a story about Jesus’ resurrection and what he does after returning to life. It is a painful and bewildering experience for him. Here Lawrence knocks down the popular image of Christ and makes him human. Jesus falls in love with a priestess of the pagan Goddess Isis and understands for the first time what ‘god is love’ means. Christ who emerges from this book is a demythologized one, shorn of all his God-like paraphernalia.

SECOND CHANCE
₨ 709As editor in chief of New York’s leading fashion magazine, Fiona Monaghan was utterly content with her life, jetting back and forth between Manhattan and Europe–until the sweltering day John Anderson strolled into her office. A widower with two daughters, John was as conservative as Fiona was freewheeling, both amused and appalled by her world of high-strung designers, anorexic models, Fendi-stuffed closets, and Sir Winston, her snoring bulldog. But after Fiona impulsively invited John to the Paris couture shows, somewhere between the magic of the runway and the stroll along the Seine, she let him into her heart. And within weeks of their return to New York, John was making friends with Sir Winston–and Fiona was making room in her closets. In a dazzling tale of modern misadventures and career-crossed relationships, Danielle Steel captures the heady magic of instant attraction, the challenges of change–and the hope that comes when we dare to do it all over again.
