TISHNAGI THE THIRST

  • Format:

Tishnagi: The Thirst is a\n collection of Urdu poems by Minu Bakshi and it is her tribute to the\n legendary poets and singers who have inspired her. Tishnagi is the desire\n which keeps us alive a desire to hold on to things that we have, and at the\n same time wanting to have the things we do not possess: knowledge, fame,\n love, wealth, ever-lasting youth... \n Tishnagi is also the story of Minus personal journey from the time\n when she penned her first verse until now. Minu started writing poetry after\n a chance interaction with Begum Akhtar, who became the single greatest\n inspiration for her and was also the reason why a Beatles-loving Minu\n abandoned the guitar to take up the tanpura. Beautifully designed, Tishnagi\n comprises a series of Urdu couplets, with transliterations in Hindi and\n English.  Many connoisseurs have hailed\n Minu as a fresh voice in classical Urdu poetry, and this book her first bears\n testament to the veracity of their praise.
