This is a published book of short stories written by my father, Iqbal Ahmad. Unfortunately, the book is no longer in print. I am posting the stories on Wattpad so that they will continue to be available to readers.
Your comments and votes are welcome (as always). Unfortunately, they won't reach the author, who is deceased (as are so many authors whose books we continue to read). I will try my best to respond to comments, though please note that unlike my father, my background is not a literary one.
There are fourteen stories in all. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
