A critical overview is given, aimed at non-specialist audience, of the recent efforts to detect and manipulate Majorana fermions in solid state devices. It is argued that the experiments on semiconductor quantum wires proximity coupled to superconducting leads present tantalizing hints but not a definitive evidence for these elusive particles.
