If Ibne Safi's stories remain unchanged across various editions published through time then how do we account for their (at times wild) rebranding?
The focus of this page is to consider how expectations about Urdu speaking audiences through time might have impacted the covers of these books across editions, and how these expectations might manifest certain cultural landscapes in turn. As you peruse the images please consider the guiding questions found on the "Cover Art Across Translation" page.
