...North of South,” Shiva Naipaul’s cynical yet deeply moving account of a late 1970s journey through East Africa, without being reminded of the travel writings of his legendary elder brother, V.S. Naipaul. Only 40 when he died of a heart attack in 1985, the unfortunate younger Naipaul cannot escape comparisons to his sibling, older by 13 years and a literary behemoth and Nobel Laureate often described as Britain’s greatest living writer. Shiva Naipaul’s work is more than worthy of notice on its own merits...

...attack on the minister comes a day after the Interior Ministry said there were unspecified reports of a Taliban campaign to target religious and political leaders. Analysts say that the notoriously vicious new leader of the Pakistani Taliban Hakimullah Mehsud is keen to assert himself after assuming the leadership of the organization. But there is also speculation that any new campaign might be the work of al-Qaeda. Last week, Saudi Arabia's deputy interior minister survived an al-Qaeda suicide bomb attack in the port city of Jeddah. (See pictures of Osama Bin Laden...

...difficult to say whether it was done by the Taliban or other group," says Askari-Rizvi. "What is clear is that it is an attack on a religious leader who has been very critical of the Taliban's use of violence, which seems to be the reason for the attack." Moderate religious leaders who have spoken out against the Taliban's brutality have been repeatedly targeted in recent months. In June, a suicide bomber killed Sarfraz Naeemi, who belonged to a sufi strain of Islam, in his mosque office in Lahore...
