Somnath Sarkar,Editor – Mélange
From the Editor’s Desk
When we began, our dream was simple—to create a pause in the noise, a space where words and images could breathe. The journey of the first issue showed us that such spaces matter, and that creativity finds its strength in sharing.
This issue carries that spirit forward—with stories, poems, reflections, and artwork that speak in many voices, yet together form a single conversation of imagination.
Mélange remains a meeting place: where language meets language, brushstroke meets word, and reader meets creator.
May these pages invite you to linger, to listen, and to carry something of their rhythm with you even after you leave.
Welcome to the first issue of Mélange—a space where stories, ideas, and voices come together. In a world of fast-moving messages, Mélange serves as a pause: a place to reflect, read, and rediscover the joy of expression. Here, literature from diverse traditions meets on the same platform, carrying the rhythm and richness of multiple cultures.
What makes Mélange distinctive is its multilingual spirit. By bringing together works in different languages, we celebrate the beauty of every language and show how they converse through translation, dialogue, and shared imagination.
Every issue of Mélange will bring you:
Short stories, poems, and essays.
Personal reflections and thoughtful commentaries.
Artwork and creative visuals contributed by our creators.
Conversations highlighting shared themes and new perspectives.
We invite you, dear reader, not just to read but to engage—to see how one voice echoes in another, how words and visuals open up new ways of seeing, and how creativity connects us across boundaries.
While the author contributes in their regional expression we provide you the option to translate it using Google
Translator so you do not miss on the article.
However, the essence may be diluted at times which we sincerely regret.This is only the beginning of our journey.
We aspire to grow into a community that celebrates diversity of language, thought, and expression—a place where every voice has room to be heard. Step in, explore, and may something here stay with you long after you close this page.
