The author calls into question why the Urdu poet Majīd Amjad is not ranked with the likes of Rāshid, Mīrāji and Faiz. She argues that Amjad’s poetry did not correspond with the current trends of Western literature that were reflected in the other three poets and that literary canons represent a closed topography, a stage filled with “stars”, a club in the form of a list whose members are chosen by lesser mortals, influenced by political correctness, ideology, public opinion, the economics of publishing and the public profile of the “star”.
