Ўз навбатида, устозларим қимматли вакиларини сарфлаб, қўлёзмани кўриб чиқмаган ҳамда уни чоп этишган ундаб, мени шошириб қўймаган бўлармиди... Ҳурматли китобхон! Сиз бу жараённинг давомчисисиз. Бугун мен минг бир хижолат билан, қалбда кечаётган олам-олам ҳаяжон остида камтарона ижодим маҳсули- илк китобимни сизга тақдим этяпман. Қолгани- сизнинг ҳукмингизда.
