Tuesday, November 11th, 20089th November 2008
Rasa Chughtai – a master of the ghazal form – dropped in at T2F with Irfan Sattar, Asif Farrukhi, and a few other Urdu poets and lovers of poetry. The result: A delightful, informal session of story-telling and recitations by Rasa saahab that thrilled all who happened to be present.
The nearly 90-minute session was recorded. Listen to an Excerpt
David Barsamian is a regular visitor at T2F whenever he comes to Pakistan. In Dec 2007, when he first visited T2F, he spoke about foreign policy, media and propaganda. This time, in addition to masquerading as Eqbal Ahmad and Noam Chomsky, David treated us to a spontaneous stand-up performance.
