Urdu literature (novels, afsaanay)

Re: Urdu literature (novels, afsaanay)

Not only Zarguzisht but I recommend everyone to aslo read Aab-e-Guum by Mushtaq Ahmed Yousufi. In fact all of his 4 books are classics

Zarguzisht
Charaagh Talay
Khakum ba Dahan
Aab-e-Guum

Also one must read "Chakiwara mein wisaal" by Muhammad Khalid Akhtar". It may appear as a cheesy, C-grade romantic novel when you start it but man does that grasp you in and you want to finish it before putting it down.

My last recommendation to everyone is "Raja Gidh" by Bano Qudsiya. Raja Gidh is availaible on Kitaabghar.com to read online for free. You may not enjoy it reading that way, though. Urdu novels are meant to be read while you are sitting on your bad or recliner. Not by gazing at computer screen
