This is not what I meant. All I said was if you consider Irving Wallace as
popular trash and you are likely to consider Yandamoori also as popular trash.
Personally I don't take the the attitude "mandaara makaranda maadhuryamula".
(BTW, I like the poem very much) I enjoy reading both Yandamoori and Irving
Wallace.

Sex wasn't the primary thing on my mind when I compared Irving Wallace
and Yandamoori. I compared them for them for their readability. It is
really hard to find one to one analogies between telugu and English
writers.

Antarmukham may be considered a cynical novel but I enjoyed reading it
proabaly because he wrote it without resorting any gimmicks. It reminded me
a lot of his earlier novels/stories like chengalva poodanda, nishshabdam
neekoo naakoo madhya, aa ookatee adakku.
