Neelam Chaudhri Author / Poet

Lahore-A Love Story is a public history book that narrates the sentimental history and evolution of Lahore into a modern city. I always found Lahoris very welcoming and reminiscent of their glorious past, which is why the city itself lives and nothing gone is actually gone in Lahore. You can find it all in bits and pieces throughout the city. Every Lahori loves Lahore for a different reason.

Being a poet, I believe emotions make us human. Daily interaction with the citizens of Lahore inspired me to record the sentiments attached to the city. In this effort I am truly grateful to Mr. Syed Babar Ali, Mr. Kamran Lashari and Mr. Saadan Peerzada for sharing valuable information and their personal archives with me. I am also thankful to my team and everyone who became a part of this book and shared their stories and photos. I hope this book brings joy to the heart of everyone who reads it and makes them fall in love with Lahore all over again, this time for a million other reasons.

The Book

The book grounds the reader in the foundations of the multi-layered history of the Lahore. It is also a guide for students, activists and tourists navigating the dynamic culture of Lahore. The book highlights the intellectual and administrative challenges they can face while exploring the history of the city. The book also includes stories and interviews of the prominent personalities of Lahore that not only gives an insight to the sentiments attached to Lahore but also gives a glimpse of the future. The book also takes the reader on an imaginary trip to Lahore to explore the myths and mysteries attached to the town.
