From the Editor

Our reality is a fiction.

Fiction is created jointly by a writer and a reader, Mohsin Hamid says in his book, Discontent and its Civilizations.

Writing is different from video, because readers assemble more of the story themselves. Fiction doesn’t come with sound tracks and casting directors.

“We’re born with an inbuilt capacity for language. We need language to tell stories,” Hamid says.

“We need stories to create a self.”

He says the self we create is a fiction, facing a reality we can’t, for good reason, entirely believe.
