Quote image editor
“The book covers are a crucial part of my work - personally speaking. Particularly because, I cannot write a single word of a book unless I feel the entire book in the cover. That's why, once the title of a book sends thunder down my spine, and the cover image flashes before my eyes, I immediately get cracking with the cover. And once I have the title and the cover image, words and ideas just keep pouring. In the early days I used to make my own covers, because I could not afford to hire professional help. Today I still make my own covers, because no designer can bring out the distinct feel of Naskarean ideas through the covers better, than Naskar himself - just like no literary editor has the capacity to edit a Naskarean manuscript, except for Naskar himself. You don't edit the Everest, you edit yourself to be able to climb the Everest. If editing is required, it can only be conducted by the Everest himself. Mark you, this doesn't mean you must gobble my ideas word for word - rather it means that, Naskarean ideas are presented to the world exactly as they pour out of my mind, undiluted and unaltered - after that, what you accept, what you don't - how you accept, how you don't, is up to you.” — Abhijit Naskar
