Dil se Daar tak

The short-story, also known as "afsaana," is one of the most important literary subgenres in Urdu literature, despite its relative youth. As a sensitive and conscious artist, Farida Zain has made the problems of the common man of the present day her subject matter. Basically, in her stories, she has presented the incidents of the poor, laborers and downtrodden characters in the right scenes, whose lives are bright with their efforts, but their faces have lost color. Her stories also have that color of social consciousness which makes art related to life. This book "Dil se Daar tak" collects a selection of short stories from contemporary Urdu fiction that were written by Urdu fiction writer Farida Zain.
