Forged in Fire: The Untold Story Behind China’s Most Powerful Leader
If you want to understand the world we’re stepping into, you have to understand Xi Jinping. That realization hit me years ago—quietly at first, and then with the force of a geopolitical earthquake. Every headline, every trade dispute, every military exercise in the Taiwan Strait, every shift in global alliances… somehow, it all traced back to a single man who, for most of his life, existed in the shadows.

Book Review: Gharanas of Indian Music by Sadakat Aman Khan
There are books that inform, books that document, and then there are books that quietly reshape how you think about an entire art form. Gharanas of Indian Music by Sadakat Aman Khan belongs firmly to the last category. It feels less like a reference manual and more like being personally guided through centuries of Indian classical music by someone who has lived, breathed, and inherited its nuances.
