Farrukhi’s story ‘Shaitaan Ka Charka’ speaks of a constantly transforming world, with inventions such as the television
An understatement: time flies. Only a year ago, on June 1, 2020 to be precise, Dr Asif Farrukhi the renowned writer, translator, publisher and one of the founding members of the Karachi Literature Festival (KLF) died of a heart attack in Karachi.
At the time, the first wave of the coronavirus pandemic had not completely subsided. A year later, while we are in the midst of its third and arguably more lethal wave, avid readers of Urdu literature in particular, and world literature in general, have not yet come to terms with Farrukhi’s passing. His absence from the literary world is conspicuous; to a certain extent, painful.
