WINNER OF THE 2025 INTERNATIONAL BOOKER PRIZE
In the twelve stories of Heart Lamp, Banu Mushtaq exquisitely captures the everyday lives of women and girls in Muslim communities in southern India. Published originally in the Kannada language between 1990 and 2023, praised for their dry and gentle humour, these portraits of family and community tensions testify to Mushtaq's years as a journalist and lawyer, in which she tirelessly championed women's rights and protested all forms of caste and religious oppression.
Written in a style at once witty, vivid, colloquial, moving and excoriating, it's in her characters - the sparky children, the audacious grandmothers, the buffoonish maulvis and thug brothers, the oft-hapless husbands, and the mothers above all, surviving their feelings at great cost - that Mushtaq emerges as an astonishing writer and observer of human nature, building disconcerting emotional heights out of a rich spoken style. Her opus has garnered both censure from conservative quarters as well as India's most prestigious literary awards; this is a collection sure to be read for years to come.
'Heart Lamp is something genuinely new for English readers. A radical translation which ruffles language, to create new textures in a plurality of Englishes. It challenges and expands our understanding of translation. These beautiful, busy, life-affirming stories rise from Kannada, interspersed with the extraordinary socio-political richness of other languages and dialects. It speaks of women's lives, reproductive rights, faith, caste, power and oppression.'

Gentle, soothing, and perfect for sensitive skin
Scent: Unscented, Size: 3.4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using the Bioderma Sensibio Foaming Gel for sensitive skin for a few weeks, and it has quickly become one of my favourite cleansers. Despite having combination skin that’s prone to redness and sensitivity, this gel never dries me out or causes irritation.
The texture is a clear gel that transforms into a light, airy foam — so gentle and refreshing. It rinses off completely without leaving any tightness or residue .
What I love most about it:
• foams lightly yet cleans thoroughly — removes dirt, oil and even light makeup without stripping the skin ;
• unscented, soap-free, non-comedogenic, and pH‑balanced, so it respects my skin’s natural barrier ;
• leaves skin feeling hydrated, soft and calm, not tight or dry .
In my routine, I use this gel morning and evening. It’s perfect for days when my skin is more reactive — calming without being stripping. Even after wearing light sunscreen or daily foundation, my face feels fresh and balanced post-wash.
✅ Gentle enough for daily use
✅ Keeps skin barrier intact
✅ Effective at cleansing without irritation
This cleanser is now a permanent part of my skincare lineup. I definitely plan to repurchase — ideal for anyone seeking a reliable, ultra‑gentle everyday cleanser.

Gentle, Refreshing, and Perfect for Sensitive Skin!
Scent: Unscented, Size: 500ml / 16.7 Fl Oz, Scent: Unscented, Size: 500ml / 16.7 Fl Oz
I absolutely love the Bioderma Sensibio Foaming Gel! I have very sensitive skin, and most cleansers either dry it out or leave a tight feeling afterward — but not this one. It has a smooth, silky texture that turns into a soft foam and removes makeup easily without any irritation.
My skin feels clean, fresh, and hydrated after every use. I really like that it’s unscented, which makes it perfect for sensitive or allergy-prone skin. Even around my eyes it feels gentle and doesn’t sting at all.
I’ve been using it morning and night for a couple of weeks, and I already notice that my skin looks calmer, less red, and very soft to the touch. A small amount goes a long way, so the bottle lasts a while too.
Overall, this is one of the best cleansers I’ve ever used — gentle yet effective, and ideal for anyone with sensitive skin. Definitely deserves 5 stars!
