Re: # 4
I do agree it is not the material for a popular India based family magazine; but for well-qualified Non- resident Indians and Pakistanis, it should not be an uninteresting subject. Especially the unique style of highly literary paragraphs is perhaps quite potent to clamp the pull on readership of Chowk

start and end of a soul-less life. Tragic. Perfectly put but not for the masses.

Re: # 2
Try reading it again in a holidaying train journey mood; journey too long but full of events, places, things not known to you earlier; quite unlike your previous business air travel.

its too long and difficult to read, and you need a dictionary cause there are so many words in there that people dont understand. so many things could have been said a lot easier. its too wordy and awkward requiring too much concentration!

I didnt finish the peice its way too long and difficult to read!
