By your good old editor, few words about the works of my much cherished authors. So the critiques will be short and sweet!

Well this month we have a new kid in Ezine, Labanya, she writes in Bengali only, I will translate her works for her. She is pretty adamant about “Writing in Bengali only”. I was like that once so I don’t mind translating for her.

Kalipuja by Labanya: Labanya’s first Bengali poem is for Mother Goddess Kali, her puja is coming up real soon and I loved the poem a lot! Check out my clumsy translation that will be added with it.

Berlin 2: Part 7 by Brieuc Martin Onraet: This month’s piece is a grim reminder of world war, its ghastly side.

Games Ghost Play 1 by Raghunandan Kuppuswamy: Now this is one thundering start! A ghost walking towards you in a desolate road in night is scary enough but walking towards you in broad daylight, well that is certainly super creepy.

Shad 3 by Troy David Loy: A fascinating story of a runaway warrior, from a clan that destroyed weaklings and absorbed their existences. That is one scary tribe!

Happiness is a minority by Dom Collucci: a poem very close to my heart, people who squabble and judge are rarely the happy lot, and at present they certainly are vast majority! Those who have stayed away from this crowd willingly are the happy lot!

Bitter Pill dose 24 by Bitter Pill: Religion: This month BP shares views about devil worshippers and I will have to agree with the author, this is a disturbing trend and if you believe media it is in the rise in West! Not a very healthy mindset for society!

Clippings by Freya Pickard: This month you will read the critique of Freya’s fantastic newsletter June 2018 by your good old editor!

The Drovers by Pat Ritters: This month Pat tells something more about Harry, it is indeed a fascinating story well told if you believe me, if not then prove me wrong! Read it and tell me it is not!

Dirkball 7 by Robert Sherriff: Cute painting a cat sitting on a branch quite in a regal pose and listening to a squirrel!

Farce in the name of justice 1 : Saptarchi: This is quite a trend in India, nothing new I believe, otherwise corruption would not have turned into a quagmire into this country! Be an honest journalist or cop and you will die or face worse! The message is loud and clear to media and police force since independence! It happens because of corruption of majority!


I believe that will be it for my critique as an editor, you will have to read the rest in Ezine. Of course there is truckloads of more works there!

  Agnishatdal Book 12 25she Boisakh 2020 Citizen Null ( https://shoptly.com/sharmishthabasu ) https://gumroad.com/sharmishthabasu Critique by Labanya Agnishatdal Book 12, Ponchishe Boisakh 2020, citizen Null https://gumroad.com/l/RFwEa https://shoptly.com/i/bata Agnishatdal book 12 shares works of Citizen Null. Both feet grounded: I am not much aware of the political condition of USA, heck I don’t know much about Indian politics, but it seems misguiding people is the latest trick of politicians. Returning to enlightenment value? : This one is a scary piece, a story how people are being turned against each other AGAIN and AGAIN by politicians. The challenge now and ahead: no wonder #45 and Feku are buddies, their way are eerily similar. Should we punch Nazis?: The Nazis should be punched but not physically by exposing their intentions and the effect of their actions on society! When weaponized church conquers Government: It become

    Agnishatdal Ashar 1428 June 2021 ( https://shoptly.com/sharmishthabasu ) Critique by Labanya Agnishatdal Ashar 1428 June 2021 critique by Labanya https://gumroad.com/l/GBTdF https://shoptly.com/i/b75y Hi friends, let us begin! Ashar issue begins with another shot from Golconda fort, the tribute this month has been paid to Sardar Ballabhbhai Patel and I discovered a lot of brand new things about him from this article. Iridescent vignette by Scott Hastie: What a beauty! Ye reap… by saptarchi : Saptarchi is right again. We never learn from past! Fogline by Brieuc Martin Onraet 15: Very interesting piece. It’s hard to explain this piece because it is continuation, it is fun to read, that much is for sure! The dawn of data abstraction by Vasu Srinivasan translated by Raghunandan Kuppuswamy: Very well written and translated piece, I wonder what will happen in the story next month. It finished at a very interesting spot. Magna- End of
