Khōréō Magazine #2.3 Reviews

I read "Skin" by Isha Karki, for the Worlds Beyond the Margins Author Speed Date Challenge. Very nicely done - it's published in Khoreo magazine, which focuses on spec fiction focusing on the immigrant and diaspora experience. And "Skin" really did fit that mold. It's the story of a young woman, a Nepalese who is living in England, pursuing a PhD and trying to fit in to dominant, white society. Skin takes an entirely different meaning here.
I'd like to say that I hated the boyfriend and would have liked to commit bodily harm to him.
