There was this girl who went to Sun City, bright as sunshine, graceful and witty.That was the first line of the Author's poem on Aishwarya Rai, Miss World 1994 that won him the first prize in a Times Of India Contest.This was soon followed by two more poems that were published in the Times of India, one on the match-fixing controversy and the other about Diana's 'death in a car crash'
These three convinced the writer that he is comfortable with writing topical poetry. That's how the idea of writing a 'book of poems' about the epoch-making 20th century was born, later to be nurtured and finally to fructify in the form of this book, 'A Century and a Score'.The book is about the happenings and people of the 20th century and 20 years thereafter. It 'races through in an easy-going, rhyming style and concisely packs information, interspersed with wit and satire. Happy reading folks!!
