Coming Back Home

This is a collection of editorials and articles written by Faiz Ahmed Faiz, one ofPakistan's and South Asia's foremost poets and writers, and of interviews with him. The editorials were published in The Pakistan Times, of which Faiz was editor from 1947 to 1951, and reflect his deep insight into the political and social malaise that has gripped Pakistan since Independence. His views and analyses remain pertinent more than forty years on. The collection also includes interviews with Faiz by such leading commentators and columnists as Khalid Hasan, Mukhtar Zaman, and I. A. Rehman.
