Urdu Literature has provided a scintillating treasure house of fiction beginning from the earliest novels like Umrao Jan Ada (1900) to Kai Chand the Sar-e Asman (2006). But it is in the genre of short story that Urdu literature truly shines with a galaxy of writers and rich narratives. In this rigorously curated and distinctive anthology, we bring to lovers of Urdu literature, the best of writers such as Premchand, Ismat Chughtai, Manto, Rajinder Singh Bedi, Intizar Husain, Hajra Masroor, to Khalid Jawed and Ali Akbar Natiq.
