اِک پر ِ خیال از منیرہ قریشی - Daastan

”اِک پرخیال“بنیادی طور پر بہت سی تحریروں پر مبنی ہے۔اس میں موجود دلچسپ مضامین قاری کی توجہ کا مرکز بنتے ہیں۔اس کتاب کے ذریعے منیرہ قریشی نے دراصل قاری کو بہت اچھی اچھی نصیحتوں سے نوازا ہے۔ اپنے احساسات وخيالات کو لفظ کے پیرہن میں سموتے ”اک پرخيال!“ مختلف النوع موضوعات کا ایک ایسا آئینہ ہے جو فاضل مصنفہ کے دلی جذبات کا عکاس ہے
