Season's greetings from Ishka!

Season's greetings from Ishka!

Ishka is taking a break over the Christmas holiday period.  We want to offer a sincere thank you to all of our readers for your continued support over what has been an extraordinary year. Normal Insight service will resume in January.

In the meantime, Ishka has compiled a list of the books and films we particularly enjoyed over 2020. We look forward to greeting you all in 2021!

Warm regards,


The Ishka Insight team
