Twenty-five years after his death, the poet Faiz Ahmed Faiz continues to be as relevant as ever; in fact, the revolutionary and seductive appeal of his poetry has only increased with time. He is no longer just a Pakistani poet, nor just a poet from the Indian subcontinent, but belongs to the whole world. The year 2012 is Faiz`s hundredth birth anniversary, and on this occasion, this book is the fondest tribute that could have been put together - for it is from the poet`s family itself.
The book has pictures from Faiz`s family album, a biography by his grandson, Ali Madeeh Hashmi, and translations of fifty-two of Faiz`s poems by noted Pakistani writer, Shoaib Hashmi. The book also has extracts from Faiz`s handwritten letters and poems, and clippings of his interviews. A collector`s delight! ISBN 9789350291481
