Writers Look Back on 9/11

In its piece "Introducing 9/11 Stories," U.K.'s The Guardian asked six writers to reflect back on the changes and conflict that have occurred in the last ten years since 9/11.  The Guardian's selection of writers is especially remarkable for its global diversity:  The series kicks off with the short story "Temple of Tears" by the brilliant and funny Geoff Dyer, and also includes work by Pakistani novelist Kamila Shamsti, Nigerian novelist Helon Habila, Moroccan-born novelist Laila Lalami, British-American fiction writer Rob Magnuson Smith, and British fiction writer Will Self.
