POSTCARDS FROM PĀSEI
Exam season is over and the neighborhood is once again full of tension-free kids looking forward to the Christmas celebrations. This happy bunch of girls rolled up out of the blue and in the chaotic mix of curiosity and fun, we managed to squeeze in a read-aloud session of 'Khuavang' written by and illustrated by . Needless to say, we were left 'speechless.'

Shout out to for bringing out children's books where characters, visuals, and stories are based in and around the North-East – and by working with writers and illustrators from the region. Representation matters!

NEW BOOK ALERT! ✨

We absolutely love it when writers drop in with freshly printed copies of their new books and here we have Makanmi Horam with 'Maitonphy and Shimreishang: A Tale of Endless Love' which he co-authored with Sochanphy A Shimray.

Stories with themes of unrequited love and often 'tragic' romance holds a special place in the hearts of people all around the world, à la Romeo and Juliet, Laila and Majnu, Chunhyang and Mong-ryong — and as such, the tale of Maitonphy and Shimreishang is dearly loved by the Tangkhul Nagas.

Read the eloquent Foreword written by the Headman of Phungcham Village — the very place where this tragic tale once played out — to know more about this book that is written in English for the benefit of a wider audience. What sets this edition apart, is the inclusion of many details missed by the earlier published accounts.

Come get your own copy at the Pāsei Bookshop! Stay tuned for an exciting event coming soon!

Bonjour, les amis!

It's not everyday that a francophonie from our dear little hometown drops in to say 'Salut!', much less with a bunch of books to tickle our French palate. Thank you so much, Merci beaucoup, Ningshinahairei — !

We are thrilled to add them to our Language collection and are certain they will pique the interest of our readers to learning more about this beautiful language and its wonderful culture.

If you, dear reader, have books that you feel the larger community should definitely read or at least have access to – books dealing with different subjects, fields of study, exam material, etc – we welcome book donations to the Pāsei Library!

Welcome to another edition of Pāsei Visits!

You know we love dropping in at local bookstores whenever we hit the road and this time we had the chance to visit in Kohima. Snuggled right in the heart of town, this cozy bookshop-café is a delightful den to catch up on your reading along with scrumptious tidbits and refreshing drinks. We love the section and helped ourselves to some adorable postcards. The North-east and Naga writers section is commendable. If you're around, don't miss their book events and author interactions that pop up every now and then. Folks in Kohima (especially its readers) sure are lucky to have a such a place as this right at home! Notwithstanding the notorious traffic, we'll definitely be back for more!
