A novel in newspaper!

Question is whether 144-page story is a tabloid newspaper or a novel? One can justifiably call it a novel in form of a tabloid. This is an innovation from the writer Robert Lipscombe who converted his recent novel The English Project as a newspaper printed on high-grade newsprint. This fascinating piece of novel cum newspaper costs just £2.99 which any common man can pick up and enjoy the story in a way of enjoying morning copy of newspaper. The English Project does have an objective correlative, which is a father-child story in its environment of the nefarious secret courts. But what the author of this novel presented in a newspaper format is really an attempt to initiate a new way of reading and perhaps a diversifying idea for newspaper groups in India!
