Fabulous Machinery for the Curious - Musharraf Ali Farooqi - Bog

"The complexity and nuance of the South Asian imagination and the prowess of its traditional storytellers are vivid in these translations. These six qissas are extraordinarily rich with poetry, significance, and symbolism. A treat for any reader and a real gift for scholars."--Annie Zaidi, author of City of Incident: A Novel in Twelve Parts "Whenever you see the words 'translated by Musharraf Ali Farooqi' on the cover of a book, you should grab it and rejoice. Farooqi is a master storyteller, translator, and author who will transport you so beautifully to realms you never knew existed, you'll be reluctant to return."--Daisy Rockwell, International Booker Prize-winning translator
