  1. Undoubtedly,he is a fantabulous writer...his thoughts and expressions in his complementary novels reflects his unconventional devotion to literature....in my very early life i dint used to read novels as i found them boaring, but you guyz will not believe that now i am a readingworm of novels..cz the 1st novel of my life was "TWO STATES" ..i am a big fan of his novels bcz they are so unconditionally written that they can be read by any age group..
