Note from the editor:

Delayed Gratification is the world’s first Slow Journalism magazine. This beautiful quarterly publication revisits the events of the last three months to offer in-depth, independent journalism in an increasingly frantic world.

Looking back to October to December 2020, when Joe Biden defeated Donald Trump in a bitterly contested US presidential election, the start of the global vaccine rollout promised light at the end of the tunnel, and the resumption of hostilities in Nagorno-Karabakh ushered in a new age of drone warfare.

• Making diamonds from the sky
• Love jihad and a divided India
