Description:First published in London in 1967, The Murder of Aziz Khan has acquired an important place in the history of English language Pakistani literature.

Intricately plotted, the story gradually unfolds, revealing the emotions of its characters; it exposes the ruthless brutality of the Shah brothers and the effects of moral corruption on them; and finally, in brilliant prose imbued with an astonishing poetic intensity, the book describes the suffering of Aziz Khan with such poignancy that it seems a symbolic vision of a wound in the heart of the new nation.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
