"I reached out, trying to wrap my arms around all three of them; Mum, Dad, and Jack. Maybe if my hands met they would be taken with me." Callum Tasker isn't special. He isn't a genius, or a star athlete. He's not unique. But he, along with 257 other ordinary kids from around the globe, has been assigned to a spaceship that will flee an alien attack on the Earth. Callum will leave everything behind; his family, his friends, his country, to give humanity a new beginning on a new home world. However he's not safe. The journey will be long. The crew is inexperienced. There are forces from Earth that want nothing more than to stop them. Plus, their captain is the most dangerous man to ever live... if he's human at all. Can a crew of teenagers save the future? Or will the past be too fast to outrun?

THE STOLEN FUTURES SERIES CONTINUES... "I have to go after him," I said. "This is all my fault." The teenage remnants of humanity drift through space on their way to a new world. The old ways are done. The old countries are gone. A new future awaits. Yet, the past has come back to haunt the present, and lingering dangers arise to buckle and break the friendships being forged on the Ark. Callum Tasker has made new allies, new enemies, and has uncovered new secrets. And like any 16-year-old, he's going to make mistakes. Will he own his faults and flaws, or fail to learn from them at his (and his fellow Arkonauts') peril? Meanwhile, in a distant future, another timeline plays out. Reeling from the changes made to the past, the last human makes new, alien friends and fights alongside them against an evil force whose only desire is to steal everything.

This book demonstrates how city literature addresses questions of possibility. In city literature, ideas of possibility emerge primarily through two perspectives: texts may focus on what is possible for cities, and they may present the urban environment as a site of possibility for individuals or communities. The volume combines reflections on urban possibility from a range of geographical and cultural contexts—in addition to the English-speaking world, individual chapters analyse possible cities and possible urban lives in Turkey, Israel, Finland, Germany, Russia and Sweden. Moreover, by engaging with issues such as city planning, mass housing, gentrification, informal settlements and translocal identities, the book shows imaginative literature at work outlining what possibility means in cities.

This second volume based on the deliberations of the Backwaters Collective puts into serious question the most familiar categories that have informed humanistic inquiry and social science research until now. The contributors probe how the intellectual and cultural resources of Indic civilization might be deployed to introduce greater plurality into the world of modern knowledge systems and reinitiate metaphysics into the discourses of politics, with the hope that similar inquiries will in future be extended across the Global South. The chapters offer newer perspectives on India’s past and intellectual traditions and suggest how we might liberate ourselves from the straightjackets of history, development, normal politics, the nation-state, and what globally passes for ‘common sense’ in various spheres of life and thought. While some contributors engage with a few figures who have been critical in shaping India’s intellectual life, such as Kabir, Narayana Guru, Ambedkar, Tagore, and Gandhi, others bring into the limelight equally compelling if somewhat neglected figures such as Rahul Sankrityayan, Ranade, and T.R.V. Murti. Conceptual papers on intercommunality, South Asian ideas of hospitality, and mnemocultural modes of learning complete the volume.
