Mirza Rajab Ali Baig Suroor - 1867
    This is kind of literature which is the link between dastaan and novel. It was written almost 175 years ago but still found attractive and appreciated by critics. Although the language used is obsolete even then reader can find it interesting. There is brief vocabulary given at the end to help reader understand some old terms. Fasan e Ajaib had great influence on other books of its era and writers of that time tried to wrote books in its style.

Nadaar Log / نادار لوگ


Abdullah Hussein - 1996
    The story of this novel takes place during 1897 to 1974. This is the story of a generation that has no urge to protect and fight for its rights, people who have accepted everything as fate and have left themselves to the flow of time. The story really gets a takeoff after 1947 when Pakistan gets independence and the people who fought for certain ideals are pushed to wall by those who happen to be in corridors of power. The novel describes those years of indifference, difficulties and turbulence which first germinate the seeds of undemocratic governments and then it leads to secession of the country in 1971. The novel suggests that this was the period where if truth was upheld the history and the geography of Pakistan would have been different but since people kept silence which tantamount to a sin, so they have to reap the wages of this in shape of disintegrating the federation and losing their brothers. Nadar Loog is the story of a people who had great ideals but were found wanting in action when it mattered to stand and assert. This is the story about poverty of action and deeds that leads a nation and people to a state of flux.
