Indian speculative fiction evolved through Bengali "kalpavigyan" and post-Independence "scientifiction." Today, as this piece shows, Indian SF is finding its voice anew—bridging caste, gender, and global imagination with universal storytelling.

Tom Stoppard, playwright of dazzling wit and playful erudition, dies aged 88
A theatrical sensation since the 1960s, whose dramas included Arcadia, The Real Thing and Leopoldstadt, Stoppard also had huge success as a screenwriter The playwright Tom Stoppard, whose playful erudition dazzled the theatregoing world for decades, has died aged 88. One of a select band of writers from any discipline to earn his own adjective – “Stoppardian” – in the Oxford English Dictionary, he delighted in the most improbable juxtapositions: philosophy and gymnastics in Jumpers (1972); early 19th-century landscape gardening and chaos theory in Arcadia (1993); rock music, dissident Czech academics and the love poetry of Sappho in Rock ’n’ Roll (2006).

A Man Ray exhibition at The Met proves, thrillingly, that anyone feeling jaded about Surrealism’s centennial in 2024 can still see the movement’s key photographer with a fresh set of eyes.
Man Ray Was So Much More Than a Photographer
From film to painting to sculpture to chess, the Surrealist was an artist-inventor, tinkering away at light and objects and having a good laugh all the while.
