Born in India and considered the leading poet on the South Asian subcontinent, Faiz Ahmed Faiz (1911-1984) was a two-time Nobel nominee and winner of the 1962 Lenin Peace Prize.

His evening readings in Hindi/Urdu-speaking regions drew thousands of listeners.

Associated with the Communist party in his youth, Faiz became an outspoken poet in opposition to the Pakistani government.

This volume offers a selection of Faiz's poetry in a bilingual Urdu/English edition with a new introduction by poet and translator Agha Shahid Ali.
