Author Description

Books on Iqbal are legion but very rarely an outstanding literary critic comes up with a book which affords original insight into both the sweep of Iqbal's works and particular aspects of Iqbal's poetry. This is work of a brilliant critic, bound to dominate the scene for long. Shmsur Rahman Faruqi who concentrates on stylistic studies and poetic form, has presented for the first time a separate volume on Iqbal, which follows his works on the earlier stalwarts of Urdu poetry, Mir and Ghalib.
