Discovering Urdu poet Ghalib and his ghazals
There’s a chance to learn about the renowned Urdu poet Ghalib on Thursday 1 December at the Centre for the Study of Pakistan at SOAS, University of London, at Thornhaugh Street, Russell Square. Novelist Marion Molteno will talk about a new edition of the late Ralph Russell’s The Famous Ghalib: The Sound of my Moving Pen, which she has edited, in which Russell selects, translates and explains Ghalib’s ghazals.
