Description
Kishwar Naheed is one of the greatest Urdu poets of the 20th century and a pioneering feminist voice in Pakistani literature. This iconic autobiography — widely regarded as her most famous prose work — is far more than a personal memoir; it is, in her own words, the story of every woman who has ever been branded "bad" for demanding her rights in a patriarchal society. Written in a bold, blunt, and unapologetically courageous style, the book has been praised by scholars as a rare feat in Urdu literature, where women's autobiographical writing remains scarce. It was later translated into English as A Bad Woman's Story by Durdana Soomro. Naheed, honored with Pakistan's Sitara-e-Imtiaz and the Kamaal-e-Fan Award, remains one of the country's most defiant literary voices. A landmark of feminist Urdu prose
