Description
For over a generation (c. 1935 - c. 1970) the Coffee House of Lahore was the greatest intellectual and literary powerhouse in North India and later in Pakistan . The book covers the likes of Nasir Kazmi, Habib Jalib, Abdus Salam, Ejaz Batalavi, Hamidullah Khan Burki, Altaf Gauhar, Tajammul Hussain and the list continues. The region s intellectual history would be incomplete without mentioning the visitors of Lahore s famous coffeehouse.
