Tea may have built the nation, but coffee booked the meeting (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Delivered without preamble, the invitation is a single word: “Coffee?” a colleague asks, walking over to my desk. “Yes.” I have never once answered otherwise. It is less a question than a liturgy, and like all good liturgies it derives its power from brevity and from the fact that both parties know their lines. We walk to the café beside our office, the baristas there know what we usually order, the cups arrive as though conjured, and there is a peculiar intimacy in being known by one's beverage
The Rumi we quote is not the Rumi who wrote (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Rumi, the 13th-century mystic, philosopher and poet, has become an unlikely patron saint of modern romantic heartache. He is quoted endlessly, and misquoted almost as often. Yet beneath the Instagram aphorisms and pastel quote cards, the real Rumi remains magnificently alive. Jalal al-Din Muhammad Rumi, who was born on September 30, 1207, was no itinerant dispenser of spiritual bromides. He was a scholar and theologian, a respectable pillar of the Konya establishment, until a wandering dervish n
Controlling the Corleones: An offer you can't refuse (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Note: This article discusses a video game purely as a work of entertainment and does not endorse or encourage organised crime, violence or criminal activity. While video games remain at the forefront of modern story-telling, it is not the same as adapting a novel into a film. But some films should never become video games because their impact lies in what cannot be played -- a look held too long, a door quietly closing, a favour remembered, a betrayal sensed before it is spoken. EA’s 2006 video
MF Husain: The barefoot modernist who painted a civilisation in motion (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Gods and goddesses, the eternal feminine, galloping horses, matinee idols -- these were less the subjects of Maqbool Fida Husain's canvases than fragments of a civilisation perpetually adjudicating between memory and modernity. So, to call him merely a painter, then, is to mispresent the persona. He was a barefoot cultural nomad who turned visual imagination into a private, unmistakable dialect, and in doing so held up a mirror to the shifting society. Born in Pandharpur, Maharashtra, on Septemb
Can fractured families be repaired? Galpo Holeo Satti thinks so (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is a particular genre of Bangla storytelling that is equal parts fable and social x-ray -- treating domestic dysfunction not as tragedy but as comedy waiting to be gently unravelled. Galpo Holeo Satti (1966), Tapan Sinha's tale of a mysterious servant who walks into a fractured Kolkata household and walks out having quietly rewired its soul, is an epitome of that. The premise is simple. A large joint family, perpetually besieged by its own domestic chaos, gets a new servant who is not mere
