I enjoy fiction that has a vaguely menacing atmosphere. Narratives with the threat of death looming over the characters, and they either are not able to identify the source or they do but face enormous difficulty reconciling their fears. This threat can manifest as ghostly projections of the characters’ unstable mental state. They might see or hear something that isn’t really there and then experience intense loneliness or paranoia due to their limited perspective. I can’t say for sure that I believe in ghosts, but I do believe feelings of loneliness and despair can be so powerful that the mind,…

Transformation: neutron stars could gather dark matter that turns them into small black holes.(Courtesy: NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Conceptual Image Lab) A team of theoretical physicists in India has shown that gravitational waves could reveal the role that dark matter could play in transforming neutron stars into black holes. Dark matter is a hypothetical, invisible substance invoked to explain the curious behaviour of large-scale structures such as galaxies and galaxy clusters – behaviour that cannot be explained by gravity alone. If it exists, dark matter must interact with ordinary matter via gravity. However, some models predict that dark matter…

Luxury is often associated with unattainability—high cost, utmost quality, and opulence. What if it didn’t have to be quite so impossible to achieve?Since the onset of the pandemic, the cost of a classic Chanel flap bag has gone up from $6,500 to over $10,000. Other classic luxury labels like Hermès and Dior have also raised their prices. For the shoppers interested in high-caliber bags, but unwilling to invest in a style with such a steep price tag, a new era of contemporary labels have come to offer an alternative—for under $1,000. And they aren’t only meant to look expensive, they’re…

From stinky armpits to funky-smelling feet and a grim groin, body odor is a major turn-off. But thankfully, whatever the cause, finding out how to smell good is a lot easier than you may think.Sweat makes us smell, and guys produce more sweat per gland than women. Another reason men sweat more is that we tend to be physically larger. Bigger bodies generate more heat and take longer to cool down. Also, as we age, our bodies become less tolerant of heat. When our body gets hot, its natural cooling mechanism kicks in, and this makes us sweat. “Sweating helps…
In the opening pages of David Diop’s Beyond the Door of No Return, Michel Adanson, a renowned botanist, is dying. He thinks about a bush fire he started on the banks of the Senegal River years before, and remembers the way the trees split open violently and creatures, in their attempts to flee, emitted sounds of terror. Having spent his life dedicated to the work of cataloguing the flora and fauna of Senegal on behalf of the Royal Academy of Sciences in Paris, he wonders, maybe for the first time in his career, whether the “burning trees must have screamed…
In Love Letters to Ukraine from Uyava (River Paw Press, 2023), Kalpna Singh-Chitnis writes an urgent tribute for Ukraine, the same urgency she employed when putting together her Ukraine anthology Sunflowers: Ukrainian Poetry on War, Resistance, Hope and Peace. In Love Letters, Singh-Chitnis compiles a series of echo refrain poems for an embattled nation. Her own sympathy is not sentimental so much as pragmatic and hopeful. Hers is not a patronizing tone but a welcoming one: meditate on these things, help others, be more. It is both an antithesis to the me, me, me modern culture and a meditation on…
