KIRTI:

The magnificence of being a woman can hardly be constricted to the world of words. Every sensation, every thought, every touch, every complexity in the body, every curve, is different for every woman. No woman can describe another. Womanhood is beauty. Womanhood is horror. And even if one does not identify as a woman, the strength of a woman lies in each of us, for it was our mother’s womb from where we were born.

For this year’s annual women’s magazine, KIRTI, we’ve decided to celebrate the intricacies of womanhood through the theme of “How I love being a woman.”

THEME: How I love being a woman.
Deadline for submission: 22nd September, 2023

'Plein de vie'! Life is nothing but beautiful, if we look at it that way. Everything we see, everywhere we look... From the petals to the thorns, the crops and the corns... It is all so alive! So full of life! Crafted like a masterpiece, flawed yet beautiful... Even the sky, if we look closely, listen intently, sings along with the birds that soar with the cotton candy clouds. Nothing is dead, everything is alive!

It is all about how we live, through them, with them!
Let your imagination spread it's wings and send us your entries for Kritika-the Annual Magazine of KIIT.

"A true leader has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to the needs of others. They do not set out or be the leader but become one by the equality of their actions and the integrity of their intent."- Douglas McArthur.
Embracing this wisdom, let us welcome our Co-ordinators for 2023, Shreya Maiti, Prachi Kashyap and Utkarsha Nayak to lead Wordsmith to new literary heights. Here's to a future filled with creativity and unity!

Book Name: The Alchemist
Author: Paulo Coelho
Translated By: Alan R. Clarke
Publisher: HarperTorch

Paulo Coelho, a Brazilian author, was born in Rio de Janeiro in 1947. Before devoting his entire life to writing, he worked as a theatre director, actor, lyricist, and journalist. The Alchemist is one of the best-selling books of all time. The novel is a fable about a young Andalusian shepherd who travels to the Egyptian pyramids after having repeated dreams of finding treasure. Coelho wrote 'The Alchemist' in just two weeks in 1987, explaining that he was able to write at this pace because the story was "already written on [his] soul."

The book follows Santiago, a traveller and shepherd from Andalusia, on his journey across two continents, changing hearts and minds. Santiago's journey details the various experiences he has while pursuing his dream of finding the treasures of the Egyptian pyramids.

However, despite its popularity, the book has some flaws. The characters, particularly Santiago, are not well fleshed out. Even after reading the entire book, the reader couldn't learn much about Santiago's motivations other than his desire for treasure and fulfilling his Personal Legend. Moreover, the book's prose blatantly ignores the old adage of "Show don't tell," and instead willingly tells the reader what is happening. Despite this, the prose is accessible to all reading levels and creates a mystical and wise atmosphere that makes it a somewhat pleasant read.
