Jazeera-e-Sukhanwaran / جزیرہ سخنوراں Reviews
-
I must confess this novella left me completely underwhelmed. Inspired by A Voyage to the Island of Articoles by the French Writer André Maurois (to be continued)
-
Ghulam Abbas's humorous literary fantasy about the lives of Urdu poets. Unlike his short stories,many of which are memorable,I found this book a struggle to finish.It bored me.
