Abraham's Children Magazine Review

Elan The Magazine, posted a review of Abraham's Children, by Imran Khan. In anticipation of this article I've started reading Elan and find it totally entertaining, amusing and often thought provoking, although I couldn't be further from their target audience - or at least: I'm definitely neither in the age-group nor in the cultural-religious group their targeting, but it crosses over beautifully. Below their mission statement and I would put a very big emphasis on "sarcastic" and actually call it irreverent. Give it a try.
