"i am a big fan of Nazimuddin's original thrillers. But this work of translation is an utter misery. The original author Pearl uses nuances in his writing which the translator badle misses, making some simple actions seem ridiculous. I wonder if his other translations are just as bad. Nazim, I am a big fan of your Bastard - Jeffery series and other original stories, but DO NOT translate. its a waste of your skill. cou"

“Tell me, is the rose naked
or is that her only dress?

the splendor of their roots?
Who hears the regrets
of the thieving automobile?
Is there anything in the world sadder
than a train standing in the rain?”

“I think you still love me, but we can’t escape the fact that I’m not enough for you. I knew this was going to happen. So I’m not blaming you for falling in love with another woman. I’m not angry, either. I should be, but I’m not. I just feel pain. A lot of pain. I thought I could imagine how much this would hurt, but I was wrong.”
