Short story collections reveal the fragile beauty of human experience in Salman Rushdie’s The Eleventh Hour, Liadan Ní Chuinn’s Everyone Still Here, Morgan Talty’s Night of the Living Rez, and Tony Birch’s Pictures of You. Then we shift gears and crank up the suspense with a look at some new crime fiction, including the icy new instalment in the phenomenally successful The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo/Millennium series, the brainchild of late author Stieg Larsson, and now written by Karin Smirnoff; plus, a sharp round-up of some recent Australian releases.BOOKS Short story collections: Salman Rushdie, The Eleventh Hour, Jonathan Cape Liadan Ní Chuinn, Everyone Still Here, Granta Tony Birch, Pictures of You, UQP Morgan Talty, Night of the Living Rez, Scribe  Crime: Karin Smirnoff, The Girl with Ice in her Veins (translated from the Swedish by Sarah Death), Maclehose Press Michael Brissenden, Dust, Affirm Press Garry Disher, Mischance Creek, Text Chris Hammer, Legacy, Allen & Unwin Kerry Greenwood, Murder in the Cathedral, Allen & Unwin Jane Harper, Last One Out, Macmillan  Michael Connelly, The Proving Ground, Allen & Unwin Abir Mukherjee, The Burning Grounds, Harvill Secker GUESTSJohan Gabrielsson, Host of the Noir Hear This podcast.
