Partition Stories
Join us at T2F for readings by Asif Farrukhi, Zaheer Kidvai, and Nuzhat Kidvai
Zaheer Kidvai will read a story about the pre-partition relationship between Hindus and Muslims. It was written 20 years before partition by his father, Azhar Kidvai.
Asif Farrukhi, who attributes his vivid memories of partition to the fact that he was born after it, will read two of his own stories that deal with post-partition scenarios.
These stories will be separated by excerpts from Manto’s classic book of vignettes, Siyaah Haashiyay, read by Nuzhat Kidvai.
Date: Sunday 16th June, 2008
