I am impressed by your photo review of &...Hi Clive,<br />I am impressed by your photo review of 'A Tale of Two Cities' by the legend, Charles Dickens. <br /><br />I had been fortunate to write a new 'Work of Fiction' inspired by the Legendary Charles Dickens and his phenomenal 'A Tale of Two Cities', set against Modern times and Modern cities. I have titled my book as 'An Other Tale of Two Cities'. I have just completed writing the first cut of the book and is in the process of submitting it for review by a private group of friends and experts on Charles Dickens. I recently completed the first cut of the novel, 'An Other Tale of Two Cities', which is a tale that entwines the lives, loves and Times in the Two Cities, Chennai in India and Shanghai in China. <br /><br />Having adopted the title 'An Other Tale of Two Cities', I feel I have taken up an onerous responsibility to do justice to the original 'Tale' by the Legend, Charles Dickens. Whether I have done justice as above is for the readers and experts to say. <br /><br />There are several similarities between the the original 'Tale' and 'An Other Tale'. <br /><br />They are both Triangular love stories for one. Both are stories about Love of the Heart and supreme Sacrifice. 'An Other Tale intertwines the lives and times of two modern cities; Chennai in India and Shanghai in China. Both tales are set in the times of political upheaval in the host nation and the characters are caught in the cross fire of warring fratricidal and internecine groups. <br /><br />Of course there are distinct differences. The times the stories have been set are different, the plots are different, the characters are different; the Characterization, their Experiences and the Classes they represent are different. The morals and integrity of the characters are different, while they reflect the times they live in. The story telling styles are different... to spot a few differences.<br /><br />I hope and believe that the characters and the story in 'An Other Tale of Two Cities' would endear the hearts of the readers as much as the original 'Tale' would. <br /><br />Please follow my blog;<br /><br />http://an-other-tale-of-two-cities.blogspot.in/<br /><br />to seed some thoughts on 'An Other Tale of Two Cities' among a small number of public and private readers and experts, whose feedback, I would cherish, before the book is published. <br /><br />I am looking forward to your participation in the Review and for your valuable comments and feedback.. <br /><br />Ravi Krish<br /><br /><br /><br /> <br /><br />Ravi Krishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15600061332189879522noreply@blogger.com
