REVIEW ON PASHTO BOOK “KATMALLA” "Katmalla"(an ornament) the short-story anthology of Mian Latif Shah Shahid enriching the Pashto fiction as the Urdu-Pashto writer has an experienced voice,a shrewd approach and a very keen observation about portraying the miserable and confusing life in his surroundings.The man is somehow a by birth literary figure, coming from Kakakhel literary dynasty that has a legacy in the religio-political history of the area, starting from Azad Gul and Haseeb Gul to late Taqweem Ul Haq,from Enwan Ud Din to Qaneta Begam,from Saif Ur Rehman Sayyed to Bismel Kakakhel and Sayyeda Haseena Gul Kakakhela and many others, all were the towering men of letters. Mian sahib focuses on the exploitation of 'irreligious' religious leaders of the innocent 'folks of God', lamenting the illiteracy amongst Pashtuns, criticizing the prevailing deprivation and injustice, pruning the turn-coats and uncommitted political leaders, analyzing the fake slogans and beyond all his sincere love for his land and people in his short stories. Shahid might have political affiliation that come up visibly in his fiction pieces yet his love, equality, and multidimensional literary approach cannot be challenged. He does not write for leisure but for his people so love, respect, vision, and futuristic approach can be seen in his literary pieces. AMEEN SAEED

It’s not just the books under fire now that worry me. It is the books that will never be written. The books that will never be read.
