anti-depressant Fatimah I loved the way the title contrasts with the text or maybe not? :)

Mukhtaran Mai vs. the Rest of Pakistan

This was refreshing, without being extreme which is quite a tough ask in this day and age.

Love, A.

Fourth Letter to Uncle Sam Funny. I`ve just gotten into reading manto (English translation) and after reading these I think I`ll stick with him. I read a few letters quite like these on a Manto website as well. Anyho.

Mistri, Munshi, and Sipahi This was entertaining. I liked the way you divided it all. I wish my history books at were this much fun. Good read.

The Aftergod NFP, you`re quite a genius and that has never been an issue. Do not get derided by close mindedness of some people who typically get scared of what you stand for and advocate.

I loved this play. It is one of your finest articles on chowk.

Love,

Tales from Behind the Bar *Ferzana
This seemed forced very unlike you must say.

20 Worst Pakistani Pop Songs … ever! After a long time I am seeing NFP slaughter people like this. This is how he made his name in the first place. But why Strings Soniay? C`mon, NFP, it`s not that bad.

*Nadia
Sometimes a big hit can make it to a worst list. I don`t agree fully with this list but hey NFP when in this mood is always a roaring read.

Sultan Mints A cheetah nonetheless :)

Thus Fare Fake Democracies I dont understand this hue and cry. Why do we keep expecting freedoms from a dictatorship? infact the funny thing is the press in Pakistan is never been freer than it is now. These journalists should find mind important things than exploit their freedom.

Sultan Mints What goes in in this man`s head? We always knew he was weird and always fluctuating
between pagalpan and brilliance...as matter of fact very much like his stories.
I will not say what I made out of this but since it is Nadeem F. Paracha sufice to say
it is his usual bizzare style he uses to spit at what he hates, i.e. almost everything. :D

PS: Am not sure that is he laughing at or defending the rights of gays? But did find it interesting the way he takes a gay man and turns him into a God fearing Muslim one.
