Critique By Troy David Loy @https://www.amazon.com/author/troyloy







Return


Young Rumi’s father works away from home, and one day, as her mother worries for his well being he returns, seemingly replaced by a lookalike who relates the tale of the man whose face he wears, his last dying wish to protect his family. I don’t cry often, but I did just a bit for this story.

 
Secret Lover


A young man is in love, but the woman he loves has a…secret he cannot know without consequences–She’s a werewolf! It’s a short story, but told very well.

 
She


A man falls in love with a young woman at a railway station, but they never speak. He finally resolves to speak with her, too late, for after one absence from their usual encounters, only a week later, she marries another.

 
The Attacks


A newly opened mineshaft is plagued by violent attacks, and a team of paranormal monster-hunters is sent to investigate. In an old castle, more attacks are reported, and the team is sent there too, with almost tragic results, as one of the investigators is badly hurt. They return to the mine, after a period to discover, and later understand, the creature at the mine, who turns out to be an alien, one of a species that created humanity. After hearing the being’s story, the humans decide to close the new mineshaft and restrict extraction to the current shafts. The alien leaves finally, leaving the humans with a reward of polished diamonds. Hmmm. Curious, this one!

Agnishatdal Poush 1426 Critique by Troy David Loy

Agnishatdal Poush 1426 Critique: Agnishatdal Poush 1426, December 2019 https://gumroad.com/l/umPGr https://shoptly.com/i/mon by Troy David Loy https://www.amazon.com/author/troyloy iravu vanakkam. naandaan Troy. Welcome to the Poush 1426 review of Agnishatdal! Here are a few of the outstanding features for this issue… First there’s… … Let us Begin… Our Virtual Trip to India This painting shows a young woman leaning, her back to a tree, while a small fishing boat travels past on the river in the background. Bharatendu Harishchandra So, here is one whose linguistic influence was deep and far-reaching. I must look for any published works of his that remain in print, and I suspect that these are more than a few sources I can look on. Rupjibi and Kalambiji Saptarchi criticizes the intellectual failures of modern Indian movies made for money, not the writer’s craft. Masai 1 of 4 Brieuc begins this series on the Masai people...

Scott Hastie, new face in Agnishatdal!

  Scott Hastie is a full-time Scottish born writer, based in the UK - he lives and works in tranquil surroundings in the English countryside, some twenty miles north of London. Primarily a poet, Scott also has had one novel - 'Reunion' published, as well as several lavishly illustrated local history books. Ten of his books remain in print today - principally his two early signature volumes of poetry: 'Selected Poetry' & 'New Poetry', first published in the 1990's - together with showcases for newer equally distinctive work, such as the beautiful and soulful 'Meditations' first published in the Autumn of 2013. Scott's current poetry is very much a positive and sparkling affirmation of human potential, with a growing emphasis on spiritual awareness. Given the impact of this more recent output and its fast growing cross-cultural popularity around the world, a much more definitive and comprehensive hardback collection of al...

Agnishatdal Kartik 1427, October 2020 critique by SB

  Agnishatdal Kartik 1427, October 2020 https://gumroad.com/l/Agbdb https://shoptly.com/i/buji By your good old editor! Few words about the works of my much cherished authors. So the critiques will be honest, short and sweet! Kalipuja by Labanya: What a beauty. It captured the purity and beauty of Kalipuja perfectly. Will Bengal shine again by saptarchi : This question haunts all Bengalis that love their culture! Things have improved a bit under TMC but with saffron brigade’s eyes glued on Bengal the hearts are fluttering! If they ever come to power that will be the darkest day for Bengal. Fogline by Brieuc Martin Onraet 7: Another piece of hilarious conversation between those who have created human beings and their boss. I wonder how human beings would have looked if they had feathers! Faithmark by Raghunandan Kuppuswamy: Quite an interesting story, well, instant reward for listening to a holy man. Hope he won’t become greedy and ruin the bless...
