“On the occasion of Saadat Hasan Manto’s birth centenary, there is a pressing need to put the record straight by making his work accessible across the linguistic divide between Urdu and English that hinders a free-flowing exchange of ideas within Pakistan. Consisting exclusively of Manto’s writings, this limited edition commemorative volume is intended to be as much a visually pleasing experience as a reading one. Divided into four parts, it showcases Manto’s autobiographical pieces; personality sketches, selected short stories and essays, and for the first time brings into the public domain several hitherto unpublished photographs of the author and his family and friends.” Ayesha Jalal

Published in 2012, on the occasion of Manto’s centenary, this volume carries selected original Urdu writings of Manto, along with their English translations. Also included are essays on Manto by contemporary authors including Ayesha Jalal. A must-have for fans of Saadat Hassan Manto.
