Description
Abdul Qadir Junejo is a leading playwright of South Asia. He has been honoured with prestigious awards for creative writers including Presidents’ Pride of Performance for 1989 and 2008 and the PTV award for the Best Script Writer three times. He writes to bring to life forgotten values.
The aptly titled “The Dead River” is Abdul Qadir Junejo’s attempt to trace the origins of the Hakro River in his native Thar, through its rich and vivid culture. He uses myths, folklore, history and legends famous across the desert to tell a story that spans several lifetimes and has countless characters, with the river acting as a constant metaphor. In short, Junejo has paid the perfect tribute to his homeland through this exquisitely penned book.
