Session on Literature Emerged During Pandemic at 6th GLFN

New Delhi: A powerful session took place during the second day of  6^th Global Literary Festival Noida 2020 when writers expressed their desire of writing a lot during last six months of Pandemic related to Non Fiction Literature.

“I have noticed that every newspaper, every blog all over India and abroad is full of non-fiction material. This was the time when writers were stuck to their homes and were also surrounded by hue and cry of pandemic probably influenced by radio and television news and programs and definitely there was only one topic of discussion and that was pandemic. Information and education both have taken over fiction in last six months,” said Sandeep Marwah President of Marwah Studios and GLFN.

“The fact is the demand of Non Fiction suddenly immerged from the people. And every writer who wanted to be read by people changed their mode of writing. They were emphasising on the material which has more value during pandemic. Fiction took a back seat and writeups, articles, books on how to live better taken over the market,” said Ashok Arora author and lawyer.

This is a reality, I started talking and writing about motivational subjects, health, spirituality and much more on environment and humanity. The tone changed automatically. This was a big change in literature during pandemic,” said Tanmay Dubey author and Coach.

During the same session a book titled ‘Know Your Unique Self’ written by Jasbir Grover was released by the dignities. Jasbir talked about her book and extended heartiest thanks to Global Literary Festival for giving her an opportunity to be on the international platform.

Most people want to forget. Don’t forget things that were painful or embarrassing or silly. Turn them into a story that tells the truth. There is no rule on how to write.

Urdu Mushaira at 6th Global Literary Festival Noida

New Delhi: “Urdu poetry took the final decisive position in 17th century when Mughals had established their dominion. It was thought by the legends of early India that Shairy should be recited in a gathering of minds with sufficient understanding of the language, so that they may enjoy, criticise, and ultimately appreciate what was recited. Mushaira is a poetic symposium,” expressed Sandeep Marwah President of Marwah Studios and Global Festival introducing the format of one of the literary functions in India to the audience waiting for this cultural event online.

“6^th Global Literary festival has given us bigger strength. When we can perform in Pandemic definitely we can do much better in the normal days. Global Literary festival has turned out to be the biggest event in last six months. Enjoy the Urdu poetry, Only the very weak-minded refuse to be influenced by literature and poetry. I have always realised that painting  is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen,” said Sandeep Marwah initiating the Urdu Mushaira.

Renowned national poets Urmila Madhav, Shakeel Jamali, Pankaj Abhiraj, Hina Rizvi Haider, Rizwana Iqra and Abhiskek Ambar recited the poetry and created a wonderful environment of love and compassion through their powerful poetry. The poets also entertained the demands of  audience.
