One of contemporary India's most prolific Urdu poets, Firaq
Gorakhpuri was well known for his ghazals, nazms, rubaais and
qat'aa. His magnum opus, Gul-e-Naghma, won him the Jnanpith Award
(1969), India's first highest literary honour for literature. The
other awards bestowed upon him include the Sahitya Akademi Award
(1960), and the Ghalib Academy Award (1981). In this personalized
biography, Firaq's nephew, Ajai Mansingh, tells the compelling tale
of the poet's life, inspiration, and struggles - shedding light on
the trials and tribulations of one of India's greatest literary
figures. 'Firaq is a poet of the labyrinths of emotions, the
sensuousness and transcendence of beauty, and the merging shades of
pain and ecstasy. The softness and suppleness of his voice does not
have a parallel in Urdu poetry.' - Gopi Chand Narang
