I am attaching a mail I got from a friend.  No request from my side, just an assurance that its genuine. Please do read and decide for yourself. Will post a review as soon as I get the book :)

Dear Friend,
“Unto the Dreams” is the first poetry collection by Binu. It is being published by CLS Books, Thaliparambu. Binu lives in a place near Mullankolli in Wyanad district. He is one of the eight children in a family that lived on farming and daily labour. His father passed away years back and a brother committed suicide due to the inability to pay back the agricultural loans. He is currently staying at the Karunya Nivas Orphanage at a place named Mananthavady.

Binu is affected with the disease named Austio Genesis Imperfecta which is basically the weakness of bones. It is at the age of two that his bones started rupturing. He was under treatment at the Kasthrubha Hospital, Mangalore for a long period. He had to stop his education within two months when he slipped and hurt himself by breaking his leg. Even while moving around through dragging himself on the floor which caused his body to swell up, Binu never let go of his love for the letters.

“Unto the Dreams”, a collection of thirty four dreams of Binu is a rendition of the means of overcoming pain through dreams.. Book is published in English and Malayalam. Price for the book has been fixed as Fifty Rupees. It is planned to send the book via VPP. If you are interested to lend a helping hand to him, please send your complete postal address with pin code to  aksharamonline@gmail.com (K G Suraj) Hope you would open the doors of his dreams to your friends too…. And thanks a lot for spending your precious time to go through the mail.

With Warm Regards,
On Behalf of Binu and his friends
Aswathy P
