Bookish: Midnight Oil (4#) -

A special feature issue of Tehelka,
a weekly news magazine from India,
has a Pulp & Noir Mystery Theme . . .

Editor Tarun J Tejpal begins with
an introductory letter to readers,
eloquently explaining the rationale behind this.

Then Gaurav Jain describes
the contents which include the work of three
Pakistani writers, a graphic novelist, and more.

There are original short stories listed in a grid
on the front page with such sumptuous illustrations
you might even want to keep some of them.

:: Enjoy! ::
