Agnidal 4, the fourth annual edition of Agnishatdal contains the works and interviews of its authors. I will talk about the works only because I took most of the interviews.


Lyapunov’s children by Troy David Loy- Great piece, a scary warning in my opinion regarding what human beings will do if they become really powerful, powerful enough to play with planets and stars!


Vikram and Vetal by Raghunandan Kuppuswamy- I have read 25 stories of a book named Vetal Panchvingshati as a child, and then I have watched the TV show, don’t remember this one, I so enjoy Raghu’s stories, his choice and storytelling is awesome!


Middle of nowhere, now here by Dom Collucci- Beautiful and peaceful!


Friendx by Brieuc Martin Onraet- It is a fantastic story excluding the apocalyptic part, but in today’s environment it sounds ominously real! Brieuc is an awesome storyteller without a doubt! Loved the ending of this story the most! It’s a beautiful tribute to his son in law.


The drover by Pat Ritter- Pat is a marvelous storyteller. He makes the Australian outback come alive through his stories. They are fascinating reads! This one shares the story of a young drover and his rise.


Political Propaganda by Saptarchi- Good piece, and we all are tired of these cunning games!


Religion by Bitter Pill- An interesting take on religion, quite balanced, part of a series published in the ezine.


Prophets of God by Brendan- A painful story about human beings and their cruelty, how they first abuse prophets and then worship them when they are dead!


Horror and Hope by Citizen Null- the effects of Trump’s reign is really horrible for common US citizens, it is tragic and sad!


Khola Akash by Labanya- a fantastic piece of poetry in Bengali.

Of dreams and reality 2019

Of dreams and reality https://www.amazon.com/dp/b0105jdvh4 Life and its myriad tugs and pulls that bring out the best and worst of imagination, experiences. We all start our lives with dreams in our eyes and hope in our hearts. Believe me! The broken hearts and souls you see around you are the ones beaten by themselves or the world! Some pieces of those dreams, hopes and turmoil are wrapped inside these covers for you. Hope you will enjoy them! You can guess by the name that this book contained a set of poems about human existence, its vices and virtues, its behavior good and bad!  Then this year I added a bunch of poems of various mood and topics, written in my own style seventeen. Now the mood of the book has changed substantially so check out and see what you can gather from them. Hope you will enjoy it. Do drop a line after reading them please!
