Inhaltsangabe
Published in 1963, Abdullah Hussein's The Weary Generations (Udaas Naslein) was an instant bestseller in Urdu. Now beyond its fortieth edition, it has never been out of print. Hussein leads you into a story of love and marriage between two people from starkly different social backgrounds, which also mirrors uneasy 'marriage' between the British and their empire. Naim, the son of a peasant, marries Azra, the daughter of a rich landowner, and their union is doomed from the start.
