Kitaab

Email Address: zafaranjum@hotmail.com
Editor/Consultant: Zafar Anjum
Country: Asia
Type: Online magazine
Description: We are living in the age of digital media, and today when a blog is created every second of the day, I was finding it difficult to be at the cutting-edge of Asian writing in English. While new writers from Asia, some based in the region, and most others making their mark in the Western capitals, were emerging by the handful almost on a weekly basis, a gargantuan amount of literary babble was being generated in the digital world. Add to it the already existing Asian literary heavyweights (or those of the Asian origin), and your literary cauldron is brimming over. The good thing about this whole new literary chat was that it was supplanting the information that was increasingly shrinking from the pages of the traditional media. Bloggers and web writers discussed writers, new and old, and evaluated their works from individual perspectives, without the fear of a snip-happy politically correct editor sitting on their stories with his editorial scissors.
