Mottled Dawn: Fifty Sketches and Stories of Partition by Saadat Hasan Manto

An OwnVoices short story collection set around the brutal India-Pakistan partition of 1947. Heartbreaking and traumatic!

There must be thousands of stories about that time, Rosh. Global politics is weird and not improving.

I recently listened to the first 'volume' (two short stories in this) of the very entertaining New Adventures of Mickey Spillane's Mike Hammer Vol 1 by Max Allan Collins. They were full dramatisations, like radio plays with footsteps, gunshots and all.

They're narrated by the inimitable Stacy Keach, who played Hammer in the TV series, back in the day. Great fun from Audible.

My review of the latest Robbie Arnott, Dusk

I didn't like it as much as Limberlost and it's very similar to the Rain Heron.

True, Patty. I haven't read many as I find the topic quite traumatising, but of the ones I have read, this book is the most disturbing and yet the most honest in its grittiness. Every single country has its demons, some of which they simply don't exorcise no matter the year.

Three good graphic novels for you all:

1. Patrik the Vampire, Book 1 by Bree Paulsen

Free for everyone on the author's website, but incomplete, and might stay so for a long time.
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

2. The Other Side of Tomorrow by Tina M. Cho

A story that needs to be read, despite a few flaws in the execution. This one is for tweens and teens.
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

3. Home Office Romance by Kintetsu Yamada

A manga set during the pandemic. A sweet opposites-attract romance.
