Of the Author

Darshan Pathak — microbiologist, sociologist, and author of White Words

From the preface to White Words, 2023

T his book may be useful for all. In this book the key feature is the series of 93 Articles, containing positive status, a glossary of literary terms, and motivates to writing literary essays and documenting them in correct format. In this book the article "Dark" guides to find the natural light in our life.

I have been asked, by kind interviewers in Stockholm and elsewhere, whether I consider myself a poet or a novelist. I do not know what I am. I only know that I have written, every day of my adult life, and that the writing has never become easier. It has only become more necessary.

What I have to offer my reader is small, and it is also everything I have. It is a record of having paid attention. That is all a writer can do.
