why Ibn-e-Safi is the most underrated writer in urdu litrature??
unhon ke imran series likh di na...isi liay :p
not really, i do not think he is that under-rated. What makes you think so, partner? :)
i personally spent some time reading his works...and had a decent time reading what he doled out. Baqion ka pata nahin waisay. :p
ager ap taqriban kisi bhi urdu teacher type insaan say ibnesafi ka adbi maqaam poochay gay to woh ibnesafi kay novels ko adab may hi shamil nahi karay ga .aur nai nasl may say 95% ibnesafi ko jante hi nahi hai
can you tell us name of some of his novels ?
I too know him because of imran series only :(
us ki imran series aur jasusi dunya hi us ka bhot bara karnama hai us jaisa jasoosi novel nigar bhot kum zabano ka kay hisay may aya hai
Maybe bcos in our culture “Adab” is only meant writing some philosophy or poetry. Ibne Safi’s work was on a novel writing. Here is some thing i posted before that may intrest u.
