I have just read the first two stories of"DASTAK."They are not at all inspiring to any serious reader.To understand my point I shall only give one example,just look at the SIMILES used for women in the second story"ISHTIHARI."If the opening is like this(showing the vast vocabulary or may the point of view of the writer)then what would be the condition of the whole book?????This style may sell the book book but cannot appeal huge masses.THANKYOU
