Abstract

Intizar Hussain, has expressed his memories in his novels, short stories, columns, interviews, and other editorials. However, he has carefully compiled his notes into two books. The first book, "Chiraghon Ka Dhuan", was published in 1998. It narrates the fifty years of his journalistic life in Pakistan. While, the second book titled "Justaju Kya Hai?" was published in 2011. In this book, Intizar Hussain remembered his childhood, youth, old age memories, and literary life. This article compares and critically analyzes the common and diverse memories present in both of Intizar Hussain's books.
