I haven’t dipped into the world of flash fiction for a while, but read Hussain’s War and War today and found it quite powerful. It is a story that shows the difficulty of choosing any position in times of war, and how each fails to put an end to the violence. Check it out here:

"The fairest survivor from the slaughter Now worships a dagger, And the men are about to sell something dear—beware! All that sweats beneath the wing shall pass away, And the barking that led you to the spring Had led the guards..." Atif Khairy

It's been a year since publication but this is probably my favourite short story I've written to date. I hope my future writing continues in this vein. Give it a read if you're into South Asian historical fiction with a sprinkle of fantasy!

Another five star review for BLACK STREAM! (thank you, Andrew). If you enjoyed THE WAY OF UNITY, people seem to agree that the sequel is even better 😊 Here, it is compared to C. S. Lewis’s Till We Have Faces (I’ll have to go check that out).

I have explained to the Wildflower that smacking a book repeatedly does not enable her to read it. Meanwhile, if someone else would like to read the traditional way about mapmakers & desert storms, both visceral & liminal, find it here: books2read.com/u/3GqJ8Q #BookTwitter
