Karachi Adabi Chaupal Spends Poetry Evening

via www.dawn.com

Poetry dominated the Adabi Chaupal held under the aegis of Arbab-i-Adab on Thursday as only one short story came up for discussion. The short story read out by Rahman Nishat was about a fugitive who assumed the role of a malang. The organizers of the literary sitting and the compere, poets Pervin Javed and Nasim Nazish, had nothing else to present. So there was a mini-mushaira, where Sadiq Madhosh was the president.
