Night In London (Paperback)


The novella sheds light on the dynamics of late imperial culture - English working-class politics, anti-colonial sentiment and race relations - like no other sustained narrative by an expatriate Indian author of the same period. Long considered a landmark in twentieth-century Urdu fiction, A Night in London is being made available in English for the first time in a translation by Bilal Hashmi. The volume also features an introduction by Carlo Coppola, a noted scholar and critic of Urdu literature.
