“Mithila is a referent. It is a symbol. It can speak to the times when we have felt that we don’t quite belong. It can speak of the times when we have felt the urge to lurk away and disappear or the times we’ve felt the need to stay. It can speak to the time when we liberated our anger and pain in ways that have only fed the creative river within us. Mithila Review is space for our collective celebration and playful engagement with language. We hope that it can speak in all kinds of ways.”
— Ajapa Sharma, Editor
Issues 5 and 6 explore “Asian SF” and I was fortunate enough to be asked to take part in the round table discussion and haveone of my stories reprinted within- “Egg”, which appeared in “Once Upon a Time: New Fairy Tales” (edited by Paula Guran).
