5 years to den of death

This book is a vivid piece of work from Indian author saurabh pant that was published on 23rd of april,  2020 in digital form as an ebook from Lulu publisher inc in the United States in epub format. 

A work that speaks the contemporary state of  disease spreading round the world: the ebook focuses covid in its core element with poems on other political aspects roaming round its spheres to highlight the core spectrum of such state. 

The work seems to be a decent one with   people from India giving their reviews on  it not only on Amazon and Goodreads but also  helping its citation reach high with reviews available on the Google books citation bar of the work itself. 

Furthermore, as it is a work on Coronavirus, the work is also appreciated in digital libraries  of African nation digital stores where it has got a lot of  feedback in countries like Chad, Lesotho and other nations  alongside the joy of the readers with equal high calibre of ratings. 

The work has also been featured in multiple Kobo stores around  Asia pacific, Europe, Baltic  and other platforms that come by the  kobo stores where it has been read well and people do enjoy its presence in  such platforms. 

Although the work has not been sent for any award recommendations, its ISBN certainly gives the author that edge but the work is well received across different places, stores and in  multiple bases of digital reading spheres around the world. 

On the day when the work completes 5 years in running, the author is thankful to parents and family, digital places where the work is available, Lulu publisher and all its distributors, reviewers across platforms and all  those who have helped  reach this book to a certain reading standard with appreciation for the work. 

In wake of a new disease set to come or lunge, the author does feel that this book’s impact and influence may grow more in the coming year but there is nothing to fear as long as we are together, so keep reading, keep supporting and for now cheers from charlie…
