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.
With
great pleasure I write that both I and Karunesh Kumar Agrawal
attended Oslo Literature Festival,
Norway
: WORDS-ONE PATH TO PEACE AND UNDERSTANDING, 18-20 September
2008. It is a great service, fertile in consequence, to the
cause of world literature that Eli Borchgrevink and Adam
Donaldson Powell have done to bring together the creative
artists from the four continents. Brynjar, Nasra, Thorborg did
a lot to make the festival a grand success. A great truth was
laid upon us in the Oslo Literary Festival as the authors from
Norway, South Africa, France, Spain, Italy, Canada, Uruguay,
Sweden and India dined together and revitalized the entire
scene by discussions
and interviews about Multilingual literature, current and
future trends in electronic publishing, Adam Donaldson Powell
reading five poems in five languages. The papers
presented were full of psychological insight and philosophic
vision. It is really an unforgettable experience for me to
feel ‘exquisite variety and varied exquisiteness’, and
remember the glistening images of
Oslo
festival.
Hearty
congratulations to
Mr. Barack Hussein Obama, 47, on his being elected 44th
President of the
United States
. He defeated Senator John McCain. I also offer my
congratulations to the French writer J.M.G. Le Clézio, for
winning 2008 Nobel Prize in Literature. He was cited as
"author of new departures, poetic adventure and sensual
ecstasy, explorer of a humanity beyond and below the reigning
civilization.”
I’m
trying my best to publish talented poets, haiku, short story
writers and artists worldwide for Peace and Brotherhood.
Biography of each artist is provided in a separate section of
the issue. I’m deeply obliged to the authors and artists
included in this issue for generous support and kind
cooperation in bringing out this edition of TMR.
Best Wishes for a HAPPY NEW YEAR.
