Dear Friends,
HAPPY DIWALI! Wishing you joyous times with your dear ones.
The new Issue of Muse India (Issue 64, Nov-Dec 2015) is now released and can be viewed at www.museindia.com. There has been an unusual delay of a week this time due to unavoidable factors and we regret it.
The Issue brings focus on Écriture Feminine – writings on feminine issues – edited by Semeen Ali, which goes beyond the merely feminine, to cover other marginalised groups. With over 40 items of articles, poetry and fiction, the large section offers much to ponder about.
We feature some more short stories from regional languages translated into English, in the second part of coverage on Indian short fiction.
We engage the noted film actor, writer and painter, Deepti Naval in a long conversation on creativity and her book of short fiction. In another interesting discussion, S M Shahed, founder editor of Urdu Shahkar and a poet, talks of his passion for popularising Urdu poetry.
Our general sections of literary articles, book reviews, short fiction and poetry - where most of our members contribute – offer rich variety and pulsate with power of new ideas and expression. We receive far more submissions than what we can accommodate and have to regretfully select only some. We thank all contributors for the interest they take.
We have revived the section on 'Art Gallery' that feature arts and crafts of the country. I am happy to share that Dr Priyadarshi Patnaik, Associate Professor at IIT-Kharagpur, has joined the Muse India team as Art Editor. In this Issue, he takes a look at recent trends in Odisha's celebrated Patta Chitras.
With the 6th edition of the popular Hyderabad Literary Festival slated to be held from Jan 7th to 10th, 2016, we offer a Curtain Raiser to give a glimpse of the multi-art extravaganza being planned. The festival, initiated by Muse India, has grown leaps and bounds in the last 5 years, and is rated among the best litfests in the country today. Do plan to come and enjoy the sessions.
Finally, look up our announcement for coverage in future issues, in the link 'Forthcoming.' We welcome submissions for the various features announced.
With warm wishes,
Surya
