For me, Urdu's nastaliq is insanely gorgeous, the most beautiful script I know of, but I can't read a single letter. So discovering an anthology of Urdu poetry in devanagari (which I can read), with both Roman transliteration and English translation, was a joy. To share that joy, I nominate Celebrating the Best in Urdu Poetry |
Very intriguing; thank you. For me, discovery is a huge part of the nomination process.
I did a little rooting around and it seems to be the various Amazons only
with the exception of Kobo India, where it's only about US$3.
