Barry Humphries, well his double edged portrait by Jules Sevelson, is watching over the pre-publication celebration of ‘Fear Factor: Terror Incognito’.
It’s a unique book - a cross cultural Indian anthology with 10 stories by Indian authors and 10 stories by Australian authors to be published this week by Picador India. Then Picador UK and in March by Picador Australia.
Who are the other authors? Booker Prize winners and shortlisted authors including Sir Salmo=an Rushdie, Thomas Keneally, David Malouf and many reknowned authors.
The brilliant editors are writer and lecturer at University of Technology Sydney Sharon Rundle and author and highly regarded academic Dr Meenakshi Bharat professor at University of Delhi.
The brief – write a narrative fiction of 4000-5000 words about terrorism as it affects ordinary people. What a brilliant brief!!!! Loved writing ‘Days of Thailand.’

Hi Nick
I’ll be flying to Delhi and Goa on 13th to speak at the international Conference, have book readings about Fear Factor and speak at the British High Commission. There’ll be lots of colour and interesting things happening.
