Voyagers Into the Unknown by Ruchira Khanna









Blurb 


In the historic Indian town of Agra, you can find a very unusual tour company, which is

owned by a charming young man named Raj. Although Raj's official job is to show off

the historical landmarks of Agra, including the legendary Taj-Mahal, his true mission is

to heal the souls of his broken "birds," as he affectionately refers to his tour participants.

His business operates purely upon word-of-mouth referrals, ensuring that all of his tour

members arrive in Agra with their hearts in their hands, ready for the spiritual growth

and cleansing that Raj is known to provide. Healing the hearts of the spiritually

damaged can be a difficult job, and in this particular tale, Raj finds himself faced with

his most challenging tour group yet. First, there is Ira, a stunningly gorgeous but fragile

young woman on the brink of suicide. Next, we meet Darci and Lennard, a couple on the

verge of divorce. Then there is Carl, an irritable, antisocial workaholic who has burned

all of his bridges. Lastly, we meet Asha, an elderly widow who still yearns for the

company and comfort of her late husband. When disaster strikes the tour group,

everything is thrown into jeopardy, including lives, relationships, and Raj's very

reputation as a tour guide. Raj must find a way to lift the spirits of these five special

travelers, even in the face of death and despair. Venture into the unknown and discover

how Raj Touristry heals the brokenhearted, one soul at a time.






Excerpt

Dawn had risen over the historic Indian town of Agra. Agra was a city of monuments, which stood tall, their unmatched grandeur telling of their long and fascinating history. The morning air was filled with the sounds of roosters calling, birds chirping, and morning prayers and salutations. Dogs and cows were being hustled through the streets and errand boys on bicycles hurried along to their respective chores and deliveries.





Amidst this vibrant chaos, a man in his late thirties with an athletic physique, broad shoulders, and unkempt black hair was briefing his colleague in a quiet, affable tone. He held a bunch of papers in his hand, and the other man nodded obediently as he glanced through them, making notes on the pad in his hands. “So, are you all set?” inquired Raj,the black-haired man.





“I think so,” replied the other man confidently, as he took his seat behind the wheel of a mini-bus.





“Call me if you have any questions, Albert. You know where to reach me,” added Raj as

he shut the door of the driver’s seat, giving his driver two thumbs up. Albert started the

engine quickly and began to roll away from the curb. He was abruptly halted by a sharp

knock on the door of the vehicle. The driver slammed on the brakes and looked to see

who was doing the hammering. Raj reappeared on the other side of the glass with blank

boards and a sharpie. Albert opened the door and reached out for the additional items.

“Write the names of my birds on these planks. It will be easier for them to spot you,”

explained Raj.





“Birds?” inquired Albert with a confused expression.





“Sure, Birds. Since they will fly back to where they are coming from in a week’s time.”








“Aha! Yes, boss!” Albert winked and started his journey.

Book Review: Palestine Wail - Poems by Yahia Lababidi

In Palestine Wail: Poems , Yahia Lababidi creates a profound and unflinching exploration of the ongoing Palestinian crisis, drawing from his own heritage and heartbreak to reflect on a political and humanitarian catastrophe that has unfolded across decades. This collection, imbued with personal history, political outrage, and spiritual contemplation, serves as both a witness to injustice and a call to humanity. The work’s origins lie deeply in Lababidi’s own roots—his Palestinian grandmother, Rabiha Dajani, was forced to flee Jerusalem at gunpoint, a traumatic event that reverberates throughout Lababidi’s poetry.  As an Arab-American writer, Lababidi is uniquely positioned to speak on the intersection of identity, politics, and human rights. His poetry, both personal and political, draws a clear line between the suffering of the Palestinian people and the complicity of global powers in perpetuating that suffering. Through his words, Lababidi eloquently counters the equation that Z...
