Born in India and considered the leading poet on the South Asian
subcontinent, Faiz Ahmed Faiz (1911-1984) was a two-time Nobel
nominee and winner of the 1962 Lenin Peace Prize. His evening
readings in Hindi/Urdu-speaking regions drew thousands of
listeners. Associated with the Communist party in his youth, Faiz
became an outspoken poet in opposition to the Pakistani government.
He was also a professor of English literature, a distinguished
editor and a major figure in the Afro-Asian writer's movement. This
volume offers a selection of Faiz's poetry in a bilingual
Urdu/English edition with a new introduction by poet and translator
Agha Shahid Ali.
