WHAT
DID THE CRITICS SAID ABOUT
Jyeshtha
AGNISHATDAL
By
your good old editor, my much cherished critique Troy is really busy
these days, so I am picking up the pen and editing the works of my
much cherished authors. So the critiques will be short and sweet!
Berlin
2: Part 2 by Brieuc Martin Onraet: The
next piece of the story makes one smile with a hint of tear in heart
if not eyes. His hunt for answers takes him to his mom fighting
cancer’s final days. She shares with him the background story of
photo, exposing a lady of uncommon grit and a dash of mischief!
Faith
the secret sauce by Raghunandan Kuppuswamy: This
is another beautiful story, loved it, sometimes cheaters do lose! It
is good to read these stories in modern world which is really
hell-bent to prove that cheaters prosper and honest beg!
The
Meera by Troy David Loy:
Being a woman who really wishes to be left alone, a desire that is
growing stronger with each day I pass in Kolkata the city with worst
possible neighbours one can dream of I liked the way the protagonist
tackled the pervert! Troy is a great short story writer, even though
this one is a part of a longer novel but is pretty good as an
independent story.
Two
you are one by Dom Collucci:
Another Zen poem from Dom, this one is pure Zen and took me several
readings to grasp it, even then I am not sure that I got it, but it
is beautiful anyways. Try to find your own explanation of the poem
and if you want to know the real meaning drop a comment for Dom. He
will most probably explain it!
Bitter
Pill dose 19 by Bitter Pill: Religion 2:
BP in this post says there is a difference between orthodox and
fanatic, or semi-orthodox people who love their traditions with all
their heart and fanatics. I agree again.
Carolyn’s
Tipz by Carolyn Page:
Carolyn has given some priceless insight on worrying and how to stop
it. Being a worrier I know it is worthless, it only heckles you does
nothing good or productive! Her suggestions are great, straight from
a very wise heart!
This
is me by Freya Pickard: This
month Freya talks about her personal world, her long fight with
cancer and the tolls it took on her health and life.
Click
go the shears 2 by Pat Ritters: Well
I am learning a lot about shearers and their strike, this is a brand
new knowledge for me and Pat’s great story-telling is an extra
bonus. It is too early to say who the protagonist is! The man who was
fighting for the shearers! His best friend who did a huge sacrifice
to save him, or his girlfriend who was furious at him for allowing
that to happen!
Dirkball
2 by Robert Sherriff: Robert
is sharing beautiful artworks from his storybook “dirkball”, it
is for little kids. I love the beautiful sketches a lot! I am sure
the book will be worth keeping for adults and kids both! This month’s
sketch is a bunch of cute mice!
Cynicism
just another bias 1 by Citizen Null: I
quite agree with the views of Citizen Null, like it or not I believe
almost all of are biased, to one thing or another so it is really
quite brave to openly say I am unbiased! I won’t dare saying that!
I
believe that will be it for my critique as an editor for the month of
Jyeshtha 1426, you will have to read the rest in Ezine. Of course
there is truckloads of more works there!
