Read Salma Hussain' review of Safia Fazlul's The Red One (Mawenzi House)! I picked up the book and it turned out to be what my bookish friends and I call a “toothbrusher”—a book so engrossing that you can’t put it down (even while brushing your teeth) thetemzreview.com/hussain-fazlul…

The Blessed Curse by Sarmad Sehbai is an irreverent blend of the real and the unreal, of farce and high seriousness. Full of satire, this novel’s style carries the tradition of Punjabi humour, which is often dark, colourful, and brutally frank. Buy here: bit.ly/TheBlessedCurse
