Read Khakam Badahan Book Summary And Review

One little problem, however; the language is quite challenging and the reader may occasionally need a dictionary.

In addition to Mirza, Abdul-Quddoos, Sibghey, and the author himself, there are believable, real characters who share the story. It was a pleasure to spend time with these adorable characters.

The first time I read this book, I kept wondering what the title “Khakam Budahan” meant. It means, “dust in my mouth,” which I found out by looking on Google.

In Khakam Badahan, you will find satirical essays with a lot of feelings. In this book, you’ll find eight essays. From the preface to the last sentence of the book, satire and humor are prominent.

This book’s language is a bit complex; there are many unfamiliar and complicated terms throughout. For regular readers, it won’t be so difficult, but for new readers, a dictionary may be necessary.
