Product Description
Inqalabi Aagae (آگئے انقلابی) is Qaiser Saleem’s (سلیم قیصر) fifth novel. The printed novel first published in 2000 is 199 pages long. The Kindle edition is 233 pages long.
This story is fictional but the author without being descriptive has skillfully set the scene and characters in this story such that the reader feels that he or she is either living in the story or watching a movie. However, the story is not far from reality. Many nations have lived or are going through this “revolutionary process”.
Just listen to how Tariq, the main character of this novel, tells us;
“I am a destitute inhabitant of a third world country, ‘Abjadia,’ who has lost whole world; … seventeen family members, countless friends and acquaintances…, and everything that I cared about. All I am left with are the memories. I am alive, perhaps, because my father said… son, you have to stay alive!!
I am writing down these recollections in a book to keep them alive. I want to tell the world that my wife, my children, my parents, my brothers and sisters, nephews and nieces have all been slayed. The world should also see that the pain and suffering of my family are mere depictions of other hundreds of thousands of people who no one knows how they were devastated and where they were killed. Perhaps in history, this has happened many times before and as it is said history is the mirror of the future but my prayers are that this should not happen again. My supplications are that this book help stop such barbarism and those in power have the wisdom to better the world before the arrival of such revolutionaries. Hence give them no reason to entice youngsters to killings and destructions.”
Qaiser Saleem’s vision and approach in novel writing is unlike others. The language is simple yet very powerful. The dialogues are short yet leave profound effects on sensitive hearts. In this novel, Saleem takes his readers to places and environs that may not be familiar to them but he skillfully set the scenario to captivate them. At times it becomes difficult for a reader to disengage from the novel. Despite the theme of the novel being political, Inqalabi Aagae (آگئے انقلابی) is purely literary.
