VOLUME 8 NUMBER 2 DECEMBER 2009

Happy New Year! TMR is open to new authors, painters and photographers. For publication in Taj Mahal Review, it is our ardent aim and desire to seek the poetry by Noble laureates, or by newly emerging (even previously unpublished poets). James Joyce rightly says, “Every age must look for its sanction to its poetry and philosophy, for in these the human mind, as it looks backward or forward, attains to an eternal state”. We have published sixteen volumes till now, about 7000 pages, and over 3,000 poets, short story writers, haiku poets, literary essays, reviews, paintings and photographs. I have tried my best to select the most impressive poetry, short story and artwork revealing diversity in excellence. (read more)

VOLUME 8 NUMBER 1 JUNE 2009

It is a matter of great happiness to release the June 2009 Taj Mahal Review. This issue includes the most spectacular poems by the authors across the world, haiku, book review, short stories, artwork, reflections, literary criticism and much more. My main mission as Editor of TMR is to publish different trends of contemporary writing world-wide by so many voices and so many cultures to promote Peace and Friendship. While selecting artwork and poems, I always keep in mind that great creative artists touch “the hidden nerve” (Tocqueville). In the contemporary postmodern chaos, it would be quite prudent to follow the old tradition of “transcendentalist individualism” (Allen Ginsberg). Jean Paul Sartre aptly says: “Every age has its own poetry; in every age the circumstances of history choose a nation, a race, a class to take up the torch by creating situations that can be expressed or transcended only through poetry.” (read more)

VOLUME 7 NUMBER 2 DECEMBER 2008

Best wishes for a Happy New Year! May God’s best Blessings make your New Year happy! TMR  December 2008 brings to the readers a varied collection of poems, haiku,  short stories, artwork, book reviews and many other illuminating things such as literary facts, gems of quotations etc. This journal is publishing  creative writings and artwork for several years.  Without the cooperation and kind support provided by the creative artists included in this issue Taj is inconceivable. I have been receiving an increasingly vast number of  poems, shorter fiction and artwork, but it is not possible to publish each artist due to lack of space. Therefore only those compositions have been selected for this issue, which reveal author’s passionate thinking about life, transcendentalism, mood of the new century, idealism in accordance with reason and commonsense, and concentrating on inner experience.

VOLUME 7 NUMBER 1 JUNE 2008

Welcome to the June 2008 TMR! This issue features a collection of poetry, short fiction, artwork, reflections, literary criticism, book reviews etc. The latest issue offers the best of contemporary creative works by famous and emerging talents. A creative artist of today has full liberty in choosing the content and stylistic approach. But unrestrained subjectivism may lead to chaos, and an artist should know where he is going. An increasingly large number of poems received by me for publication in TMR is a testimony to the fact that the future of poetry is immense in this age of tribulation. Poetry is a good substitute for religion and philosophy. "The strongest part of religion is its unconscious poetry. Without poetry our science will appear incomplete; and most of what now passes with us for religion and philosophy will be replaced by poetry" (Matthew Arnold).

VOLUME 6 NUMBER 2 DECEMBER 2007

My heart's desire is that Taj should concentrate on publishing original authors and artists. I have kept this in mind while selecting an increasingly large number of poems and short stories. How to save Poetry? Cyberwit is doing something in this direction. Why Poetry? He that rejecteth Poetry and Art will not have a good conscience. They alone clean and save our soul. Poetry is divine. We are cleaned by Poetry. Poetry alone can expose 'hypocrisies of official society', and the totalitarianism of the present machine society. Hope you will enjoy this massive collection of poems, short stories and artwork reaching a worldwide audience. Cyberwit's purpose is to assist authors in the publication of creative writing without them having to suffer the ordeal of going through an agent.  (read more)

VOLUME 6 NUMBER 1 JUNE 2007

I have pleasure in presenting the June 2007 issue of Taj Mahal Review. This issue features most remarkable Artwork by international artists, Poems, Short Stories, Literary Criticism, Interview, Book Review and more. There is a separate section for Haiku, the smallest literary form that originated in Japan in the 17^th century. Due to difference in the syllable structure of English language, 5-7-5 format should  not be mandatory. The authors whose writings appear in Taj are selected because of their heightened sensibilities as well as their fuller understanding of the postmodern period. (read more) 

We're sorry; copies not available.

Welcome to the Taj December 2006! The aim of Taj is to promote Art and Poetry for Peace & Brotherhood across diverse nations. This issue contains an extensive selection of most notable artwork, poems and short stories created by artists from all over the world. The artists whose works appear in Taj are selected because of their innovative style, and their faith in limitless freedom of expression  devoid of superfluous ornamentation, empty verbiage and hollow generalities. The most important thing for a creative artist is to posses some inward Platonic reality to face the dark unspirituality and ‘homelessness’ of the postmodern ethos. (read more)

VOLUME 5 NUMBER 1 JUNE 2006

Welcome to Taj Mahal Review June 2006! The mission of TMR is to promote creative writing and arts by both known and unknown contemporary poets and artists transcending geographical barriers and nations, defend freedom of expression, and to promote literary fellowship across the globe without any distinction of religion, race, nation, or gender. This issue is for those who love poetry, short fiction and artwork. All creative souls endowed with a poetic temperament will be inspired to become poets, who alone are the chosen agents of God. The variety and intense melody of English verse, which has been a tradition since Shakespeare, is again shown in several poems selected for this issue. TMR assimilates poems and short stories from different nations, and presents a homogenous work of original creative writing. (read more) ONLY HARDBACK

VOLUME 4 NUMBER 2 DECEMBER 2005

Best Wishes for a Happy New Year! Welcome to Taj Mahal Review, December 2005! London blasts on 7\7 and Delhi blasts on Saturday October 29, 05 prove once again the brutality of terrorism. The ethical poverty caused by a deplorable loss of human values, the unfortunate triumph of consumerism and materialism, worship of money and machine- all these make my heart bleed, yet I hope the bright and luminous artists will one day find an answer to the vices of contemporary reality.  (read more)

The poems included in Taj Mahal Review, (December 2003) explore a great variety of topics. We find nothing doubtful or pessimistic in several poets, who seem to dwell in the infinite realm of spirit. On the other hand, some poets included in Taj Mahal Review criticize the new dictatorship of materialism over the soul, the cruel values of globalized world, full of people who have become "nothing but naked, eternally restless minds."  (read more)
