I congratulate my dearest sir for his great endeavour in his writing, The Tailor’s Needle. This time when many scholars of the world are attempting to write this genre, one of them, Prof. L. R. Sharma’s attempt is noticale. It is his great effort to produce such a novel, in discussing the mileu and fragrance of Prayag(Allahabad), a mythologicl city of India. Prof. Sharma has been the experience of two cities of India, one is Mirzapur, the another is Allahabad. When ‘the Indian rooted fames’ are describing the metro cities along with the major European cities, his work has discussed the typical Allahabad city, with great variance of lattitudes and longitudes, as is my assumption.
Recently I have seen his novel in a book-exibition, in the departmental Library while holding an International Seminar in his direction. Now, a don of deptt. has given an unforgettable contribution in the field of novel-writing.
I wish him a tremendous success for The Tailor’s Needle.

My best wishes are with you.

Dear Amit,
We are made of stories as Edward Said informs us. Nations are narrations. The stories, particularly the mythical and the historical ones, influence us tremendously without our quite knowing it.
Stories and fictions are therefore of great importance and it is vitally necessry that we read the right (or appropriate) ones.

Dear Mani,
All novels have to tell some lies. The plot is artistic lies because it is not be factually true or maybe partially untrue.
My novel too will contain that kind of lies. Though I hope that it will, as Shakespeare says for the witches in Macbeth, “lie like truth”. Hope that the lies will still point to the truth.

Respected sir,
Let me, at the very outse, wish Sri Sharmaji a great success with his newly written novel, The tailor’s Needle. You gave a graphical rendering of Allahabad-the town of the confluence of the Ganga, the Jamuna, and the mysterious Saraswati. The university of Allahabad is as old as himalayas. History is being ignored without knowing that how indispensable it is for the present to give shaping for future. All the three-past, present and future are very important.The catchy lines as mentioned above: The Tailor’s Needle has resulted from the need to tell the world how we became what we are today, what were the forces that contributed to our present. The aforementioned information given by the author is very little but very thought provoking. I am eagerly looking forward to reading the full version of novel. I am quite sanguine that this novel, though it is fictional, Sri Sharma garu can ignite the minds of millions of readers by this novel.
