Most critics agree about Naiyer Masūd’s complex creative expression that defies any particular reading methodology. However, at the same time, reading him can be a peculiarly pleasurable experience. The rare quality of his work stands out even against the short story of other world languages. The writer argues that the meaningfulness of any creative piece of writing is in the first place determined by its influence on the reader. The story discussed here possesses this very quality of involving the reader. The well-knit plot steeped in an aura of mystery keeps the reader mesmerized and fully engaged.
