The book in your hand was written thirty years ago while the writer was just twenty five. This constitutes the first of four books (tetralogy) which were written by him around that time. It might be shocking for you to know that the first one which is before you has been rejected by more than thirty publishers in the last thirty years. Some cited no reason, some said, it is a most horrendous piece of writing... Human world would simply not accept ... burn it. The writer did not burn, but simply kept it along with the other scripts in a box and locked, and then forgot the fate of their print. After thirty years he revived his interest with a hope to introduce them to the educated public.
But, much to his consternation and shock, the same story has been repeated, but with a difference. One or two publishers called it fabulous and shocking ; some accepted it in the beginning, later abandoned without citing reasons. Yet one signed the contract and vanished. Still another signed the contract and later broke it after six months. The writer is driven to deep frustration. Yet, determined and ready to face adverse and aggressive hostile world, the writer has ventured it on his own with the help of a budding publisher, Cyberwet.net for which the writer expresses his deep sense of gratitude. The book is now before you, in your hands. Read and burn and forget. |
