Ek Fiction NIgar Ka Safar

This is a conversation; between Shamsur Rahman Faruqi, the greatest Urdu critic and high-profile fiction writer, and Udayan Vajpayi, perhaps the greatest Hindi writer, poet and thinker of our time.
Udayan Vajpayi's personality is shaped by intellectual, cultural and creative elements of a very high standard. Theater, film, drama, poetry, painting, music, novels and fiction, as if every aspect of art or fine arts has been created in Udayan Vajpayi's rich and dense personality, has explored all the possibilities of art in medical science.
A great mind like Shamsur Rahman Faruqi has not been born in the last sixty and seventy years and no Indian language has produced such a scholar of literature, such a critic and such a theorist who can claim Faruqi's equal in any matter.
If you want to understand the creative mind of Shamsur Rahman Faruqi and the different layers of his intellectual, cultural and moral character, then there is no better source than this conversation.
This conversation was published in 'Samas', a prestigious Hindi literary journal published in Bhopal (India), edited by Udayan Vajpayi. Rizwanuddin Farooqui has translated it from Hindi to Urdu.
