Our life is speckled with the anecdotes and their narrative tales and one does not have to traverse too far and wide to stumble upon them. A connoisseur can identify them with an insightful profundity and a perceptively sensitive  observance.  The compositions of stories compiled in The Infinite are testimony to this. Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ has accentuated his truthful observations  in  his  stories standing on the turbulent surface of life. It is worth noticing that numerous stories of ‘Nishank’ are the  narrative  sagas  of  the marginalised people. ‘Nishank’ has collected story threads from poverty, commodification of relationships, subject matters pertaining to women, and the ironical circumstances engulfing human life etc. While working on the warp and the woof of his narrative sources, he captures the attention of his readers and does not  deviate  them  from  the labyrinth of his imagination. His narratives  speak  volumes  in simple  language  filled  with simplicity. 
The stories of The Infinite are testimony to the joys and sorrows of life.
