Urdu stories | Rakhshanda Jalil

My heart belonged to him; I wanted him to conquer my body as well; for one year or two, however long he wished. The measures for love are different for different people.

kishore_kk I'm glad to see some great names in this book. #Premchand is my all time favourite, I have read most of his books including 8 volumes of Mansarovar. I love Manto's work too. I also love to read Urdu Shayari. 7y

Parvez @kitabi_keeda Gaban by Munshi premchand is on my TBR list. Looking forward to it. 7y

Parvez Gaban and Godan are two of his best novels 7y

Parvez

Urdu stories | Rakhshanda Jalil

The first instance is to sense each other‘s presence, to feel the need to see the other. Once the eye is satisfied, the soul gets a green light, only then it‘s time to ask each other‘s name.

saresmoore What a beautiful quote! Tell me more about this book? 7y

Parvez It's beautiful. The book is a collection of Urdu short stories translated to English. Includes Urdu writers of Pakistan and India. 7y

Parvez “Mourner of the Feet”, the longest short story in this collection, is a story narrated by a shoe, a shoe that possesses “a crude rustic charm” yet is capable of immense perception, for a shoe is both witness to its wearer‘s pains and also a sharer in his sufferings. 7y
