The Pak Tea House is a hallowed cafe in Karachi, where generations of Pakistani intelligentsia have debated Pakistan's present and future.
For those of you who are planning to read the novel Basti by Intizar Husain (that I posted about earlier), the cafe in that novel is modeled clearly on Pak Tea House.
This is a terrific blog, I plan to assign posts from it as assignments for my students, to generate their understanding of the context for particular statements / perspectives.
