Praise For Taj Mahal Review
(VOLUME
5 NUMBER 2 DEC. 2006)
I just received my copies of Taj Mahal Review in the mail. This international edition is truly outstanding, and my heartiest congratulations go to everyone who participated.
Francie
I hope you’re
fine. I just received the new Taj Mahal Review.
Thank you very much. Have a nice day.
Eric Tessier
Now I’ve
got the books. My neighbour took them from the
postman, because I was not at home and he just
gave them to me. Thank you very much for the great
books and also thank you for publishing my
photographs and the stories about them. Good luck
for you, your family and your business…
Greetings from Germany
Michael
Gebauer
Hope you are
doing fine, as well. I did receive my copies, and
am very grateful for your speedy dispatch, and
delivery. All, who wanted a copy, and received
one, are very pleased. Particularly, the owner of
the dog, Zowie, and the grandmother of the child,
Kristy. One other inquiry, if you please. The fans
of the singer, Clay Aiken, who is one of my
drawings you published, were all excited about my
drawing of him being published! Just curious, have
you received many unusual amount of orders from
different areas of different countries? His fans
are quite enthusiastic, and will purchase most
anything that has to do with him. Just curious,
because the link to purchasing your "Taj
Mahal Review" June 2006, publication, has
been posted at some of his fans’ message boards.
Carliss Mora
aka Cezanne
Yes, my copy
came a week ago. Thank you. I’m glad to see that
I’m nearer to the front of the book this time.
;-) And by the way, I take both books with me
during my business travels and show them to
potential clients. Hopefully I can steer a few
orders your way.
Steve Love
Your June
2006 issue is even more impressive than the prior
two I’ve read. More stories, more poems, and I
do believe the paper is of a higher grade. I’ve
already read half the stories in this issue, and
you and your editor show discerning taste in
choosing which stories to publish. I thank you for
including mine in such high quality company.
Leon Barnes
I did
receive it. What a wonderful journal you have!
Ron Savage
Yes, I did.
The issue looks terrific. Thank you for your work.
Jeffrey
DeLotto
I did
receive my order—am very much pleased and
excited. Again, thanks for considering my work
worthy of publication.
Terry Clark
I’ve
received all 4 HC TMR on 6/30 in perfect condition
The books binding and construction are of very
high quality. Its cover art by ‘LadyMagic’ is
graphically intriguing and colorful. My having
read several hours of its amazing content,
eagerly, upon their arrival. I’m more than
thankful to you both for selecting my art, poetry
and storied Reflections. Having been published
with as many a worldly kindred spirit, has me all
the more humble and musely encouraged. My sincere
congratulations to all of Cyberwit staff for their
combined, creative efforts. June ’06 Taj Mahal
Review has surly evolved to become one of its own,
unique literary classic.
Louie Levy
Well your
latest TAJ MAHAL has arrived and I must say it is
your best issue ever. Of course I haven’t read
everything yet, there is much to read and savor so
it will be done over time. The photographs are
excellent, particularly of Bebu!!!! Thanks again
and keep up the good work.
Michael
Estabrook
Thank you
very much. Yes I received the book okay. Found it
really packed with good stories and poetry. An
absorbing read. Thanks for using my own offering.
I look forward to more issues in the future.
Pat Newcombe
Yes I
received my copy a few days ago. Thank you very
much. I like this one a lot. It has quite a bit of
variety in it. I’m enjoying the writing as well.
Crystal Diane
Arbogast
I did indeed
receive my copy of the journal and I’m very
excited about reading it. Thank you for your
concern and thanks for considering me for the
publication.
J.L. Campbell
Yes, I
received my 3 copies last week. I work for the
Cape May County Library (http://www.cape-may.county.lib.nj.us)
and we are putting one of the copies in our
collection. Thank you very much.
Diane Hamilton
I did
receive the copy of the June 2006 Taj Mahal
Review. I have yet to put it down since it arrived
at my front door. Thank you very much for the
prompt delivery, along with the excellent material
that this book is composed of.
Johnny
Santiago
The June
issue looks wonderful. Many thanks. I was
particularly impressed with and moved by the
editor’s comments in the beginning about poetry—bless
you all! I hope you will consider publishing more
of my work, as submitted, in your anthologies.
When I’m back at the university, I will try to
get some of your publications into the library.
Fran Shaw
Thank you
for your note. Yes, I did receive my copy of the
June 2006 issue of Taj Mahal Review. As usual, the
layout, printing and contents were first-class, as
was the very speedy delivery time. I again commend
you for your excellent work in this field.
Tony Donovan
I received
the June 2006 issues of Taj Mahal four days ago.
in excellent condition. My family and neighbor
enjoy these books.. This issue was exceptionally
great... had such a variety of goodies in it.
Del Senkbeil
Your lovely
Taj Mahal Review just arrived and is a beautiful
production. Many thanks for using my work in it
again. I shall enjoy the Mary Barnet book too;
thank you for that.
Patricia
Wellingham-Jones
To all the
editors and staff at Cyberwit, many thanks for
this beautiful issue. I am proud to have my work
included.
Vera Searles
Hope this
finds you well. Yes, I did, thanks. It was
wonderful. I really appreciate having my artwork
published along with such fine artists and
writers.
MaKayla Songer
The June
issue of Taj Mahal Review arrived in good
condition. It sure is a "big" book. I
have given it a look through and it promises to be
a good and varied reading again. Thanks for
including my poem. It is nice to read from all
those people all over the world. Indeed one
wonders why there is so much misunderstanding when
also books like this can be put together. I also
want to thank you for the extra book. I wonder if
you hand picked this one as it is from another
dutch woman. I did not read the whole book yet but
her poetry and the way she started writing in
english, resembles my own. What I read so far I
liked a lot. And guess what, she is from a town
very near to where I live. I wonder if you could
get her permission to give me an e-mail or other
contact details. Or if I could write her a short
note through your publishing house if you would be
so kind to pass it on.
Anja Wellen
Dear Santosh,
first of all let me congratulate you on another
magnificent (June 2006) issue of TMR, it is a
treasure trove of literature and the hardcover
book is impressive. I also liked the artwork very
much, it is varied and original. This magazine
should be given a major award in the anglo-saxon
literary arena. Did you ever try to submit it for
this purpose? I also want to thank you Kumar, for
your excellent review on Oh Zaperetta! It warmed
my heart inasmuch as people like the series very
much. Then too thank you for your own Helicon
chapbook. The antiterror poems are very telling,
full of empathy and justified anger, especially
after the bombs that wreaked so much carnage and
havoc in Mumbai. But these evil people sow hate
and destruction all over the world. Will there
ever be a stop to their madness? I really doubt
it.
Albert Russo
Yes, I have
received the June issue of TMR and as usual the
stories, poems and overall design are most
impressive. The cover design is particularly
remarkable and the length, nearly 500 pages, makes
this edition an outstanding bargain.
John Cuetara
Yes, I most
certainly did receive June, Taj and it was, as
always a beautiful piece of literature and art. I
am at www.jbstillwater.com
Janet K.
Brennan
I got the
book so fast. I unwrapped it and I was so happy.
My art was very fine printed and choosen. And hole
book is well worth reading.
Pepita Selles
Thanks much
for the latest issue of Taj Mahal Review. What a
fine collection of literary gems! Looks as if I
have my work cut out for me! I hope things are
well in your corner of the world. Once again it is
a privilege to be counted among your stable of
writers. Please continue.
WS
("Bill") Mayo
It will take
me awhile to get through all the stories and
poems! The people at my post office thought it was
great to receive something from India. My friend’s
grandsons inherited the packing box because they
had never seen stamps from India.
Ronda Del
Boccio
I have
indeed received the June edition of The Taj Mahal
Review and I am delighted with it. It is
exceptional in every way. I hope to appear in
future editions of this world class publication.
Sandra Fowler
I did
receive the TMR June 2006 issue, containing my
short story - "JOURNEY TO THE CORNERS OF THE
EARTH: Encounter in a Chapultepec Forest".
Thank you so much. Your literary journal is
exquisite, and I am so proud to be published in
such a distinguished international literary
journal. This has inspired me in my literary
writing. Hopefully, this will help me to finish my
doctoral dissertation. I am really impressed with
the different art pieces published in the art
section of your June 2006 issue. The paintings and
photos are so beautiful, so aesthetically touching
and meaningful. But I would like to make a helpful
suggestion to you. In light of the ongoing
terrible tragedy in the Middle East such as
Lebanon, Israel, and Palestine and other areas of
the world, I would like to recommend that you
place more emphasis on literary contributions that
stress peace, justice, human rights, and
reconciliation. In Dr. Noam Chomsky’s brilliant,
charismastic visionary book - "Hegemony or
Survival: America’s Quest for Global
Dominance" - he articulates so eloquently
that humankind is at a crossroads in which if we
do not something fairly soon about the frightening
trend towards violence like wars; increasing
destruction of the environment; ethnic, religious,
racial, and linguistic conflicts; proliferation of
weapons of mass destruction, mounting
militarization; globalization such as the spread
of neo-colonialism and imperialism, and so forth,
humankind/homo sapiens is faced with frightening
possibility of extinction, including the
destruction of our precious planet. I personally
feel and believe that the world is accelerating in
that dangerous trend that could ultimately result
in an Armageddon; if we do not do something
drastically to reverse that trend that could quite
possibly spin out of control. In conclusion, it is
absolutely imperative FOR US to take the necessary
steps collectively to prevent that ultimate global
holocaust and make this a much more humane and
blessed world; and we DO have the power to do so
collectively. Thank you so much for your kind
inquiry and friendship. I appreciate your literary
journal so much, and I do hope to continue to
contribute to it.

(VOLUME
5 NUMBER 1 JUNE 2006)
I
have just received my copy of the December 2005
issue of The Taj Majal Review. Thank you so much
for exceptionally quick service. This issue
appears to be the best yet. I especially liked the
increased spacing between lines which makes it
very easy to read. I don’t know how you manage
to bring out such an outstanding product at a
price of only $16.00, considering that the price
includes the air mail registered postage. That’s
almost giving it away.

Today
the book volume 4 number 2 december 2005 came into
my hands... i did also appreciate the photo of the

I
just received my copy of Taj Mahal Review in the
mail and wanted to write and tell you how
beautiful it is. Thank you so much for including
my piece in with the work of some truly gifted
writers. I have been reading the other stories and
poems and enjoying them immensely. Also, the
second journal, Voice of the Phoenix, is equally
fascinating to read.
Chloe
Noland
I
received both copies and am very satisfied.
Boris
Tsessarsky
The
volumes arrived yesterday. They look beautiful. I
look forward to enjoying the artwork and reading
the poetry and stories. Thank you also for
including "Voice Of The Phoenix".
Elliot
Satsky
Truly,
Dr. Kumar, Mr. Agrawal, and all your staff, The
Taj Mahal Review is as packed full of interesting
reading as it is beautiful. Once again your hard
work has resulted in a terrific contribution to
world literature. Many, many thanks (including
even a small thanks for the excellent packaging of
the book which allowed it to survive its long
postal journey in fine condition) for all of your
efforts.
G.K.
Wuori
Thanks
for the follow-up, Karunesh. Not only is all fine
here, but I received my copies of TMR and I
shipped them to various friends who like to
read.
Leon
Yes,
I did receive my copies of TMR Dec. 05—and I am
pleased with the results.
Rich
Yesterday,
I received the book, and it’s beautiful. Again,
thank you very much for selecting my story "
Under a San Francisco Sky" for publication.
Ernest Alonzo
Yes,
I received it the other day. A funny thing to be
published in India, after living in Bombay/Mumbai
for a year in 2001-02. :) I’ve told our friends
there about the Taj Mahal Review, and am eager to
read the work of the others you’ve included.
J
Lyons
Yes,
I received everything in great condition.
J
Turner
Taj
Mahal Review is a wonderful magazine, and I’m
very thrilled to be a part of it. I’ve read
several of the stories and enjoyed each of them.
Thanks again for making my story a part of TMR.
C.S.
Watts
It’s
a nice looking book; well done on the layout and
design. I’m working through the stories now —
I’ve recognized a couple authors, like the dark
atmosphere. Proud to be part of it. Keep up the
good work.
Andy
Henion
I
am very impressed with the issue so far.
L A
Hutson
Oh,
yes, I did receive my books and they were just
beautiful, as always. I can’t tell you how proud
I am to be a part of such a "giving"
publication. I look forward to working with you in
the years to come.
J
Brennan
Another
fine issue! I especially thought that the colour
plates layed side by side with some of the poetry
was just stunning. And please thank Santosh for
his thoughtful Christmas card.
A.
Alan Beck
I
need apologize for my reaction to what I had first
seen of the cover online thinking that the best
half of my photo was cropped for the front cover.
I love what you’ve had done with the wrap around
over the binding and onto the back. The print
quality finely compliments the original. I’m
very proud to have it appear on TMR. Please feel
free to forward me any comments given the cover
and, or my writing. Also honored to have 5 of my
favorite poems on 7 pages accepted and so finely
printed and formatted. Making it also available in
hardcover beautifully enhances its wonder filled
content.The much improved packaging resulted in
all books arriving in perfect condition. Packaging
6 TMR seems to be the perfect size and weight for
its safe handling enroute. What with having my
fussy portrait artistry commenting Possibly
enlarging your photo 2-3 X and insisting that your
printer improve its pictoral resolution. I like
your color photo in ‘Harvests’, Attractively
enlarged some will all the more compliment your
brilliant Editorials. Should I ever brave a voyage
to visit you all in India. I would have you all
pose for a deserving group portrait that would
appear somewhere within Cyberwits pages. just a
few ideas ...out yonder to ponder from out here in
So. California
Suggestion;
It
would be very encouraging to have an ongoing
ONLINE ‘Comment to Contributors’ page that we
can read and an email to thank the readers.
Interactions will most certainly encourage
subscriptions and an opportunity to make new
friends. Hopefully, all efforts will help TMR’s
‘Earthy’ Peaceful contents be judged by its
inviting cover. I’m delighted of having my photo
art embrace the front and back cover of your
wonder filled Dec’ 05 TMR issue. Appearing, are
five of my poems, proudly contented, among the
many talented writers. Cyberwit continues to
dedicate and academically publish worldwide for
Peace, Empathy and Goodwill. Soulful inspires that
have its contributors and readers support its
premise for Earths Rescue. For as long I’m given
the spiritualness of mind and aging body, my
sincere efforts will strive to support its
existence Thankful to our Chief Editor, Dr Santosh
Kumar, its entire staff and productive facilities.
Please help subscribe as loving gifts for the New

It’s
a beautiful book with a lot of interesting fiction
in it. I’m read some of the stories already and
have quite a few more to go. It’s so impressive
the amount of diversive fiction you’re able to
deliver from a vast pool of writers. I’m very
happy to be part of your book.

I
am enjoying it. It’s refreshing to read, unusual

Thank
you so much for again using my work in Taj Mahal
Review. You made an elegant production of the poem
superimposed on the photo and the whole volume is
handsome indeed.
Patricia
Wellingham-Jones
I
am so sorry I have not written you sooner. My work
schedule has been crazy, and I have no access to
e-mail there. I did receive the Review, and it is
lovely!! It has introduced me to so many new
writers. Thank you again so very much for
including me in your wonderful journal. It has
opened another door on the world for me.
Eugenia
Hepworth Petty
What
one knew on Thursday,
by Friday, with grace, another found out.
On Monday the first re-assesses,
by Tuesday both are in doubt.
But this questioning makes fail, only that work
love does not do.
Then, if, like the ‘..Review’ love senses its
own presence,
extent of good work shows equal love’s due.
I received, read the opening pages and dived-in
here and there in the Review, am quite glad to be
part and plan to spend quality time with.
Joseph
Duvernay
I
just glanced thru it, but I am sure it is going to
be a great one to read... for those who like
poetry and those who like to read short stories..
I like to read both since I used to write short
stories too. I always give a copy to an elderly
lady who lives next door.. She loves your
publications and reads them from cover to cover
and then gives them to her children to read.
Thanks also for HELICON, Santosh’s book.. I am
sure I will enjoy it.
Luv,
Del
I
received the two books and was delighted to see
how beautifully you handled my work. From the
attractive covers to the inspiring content your
project was flawless. I’m honored to have been
included in such an excellent publication. Just
wanted you to know that everyone who sees Taj
Mahal is very complimentary. You certainly did a
splendid job of producint an outstanding
book.

They
are beautiful and it’s a real pleasure to read
all these very good stories.

put the little picture of the waterfall on my
bulletin board, heh. I will spread a good word
about you guys. I hope your new year has started
out well.

I’m
sorry, I thought I had mentioned that it came, yes
