yes books are becoming very expensive. every time i go to Pakistan, i go to urdubazar. specially the books of famous writers with 200-300+ pages have crossed the range of 200-300 rupees.
once traveling from Lahore i forgot to keep some book with me, and went to the bookshop at departure lounge of airport, i had to pay 1000 rupee for Baba Sahba, at urdu bazar karachi it was about 900, still too expensive

Baba Sahiba might be sold for Rs 1500 now. An 800-850 pages novel is now available for Rs 1500. Sang e Meel is charging Rs 2 per page (on an average)
