This week at Daastan<\/a>, we are interviewing another emerging<\/em> and promising poetess<\/em>, Ozma Mushtaque. Stay with us and get to know about Ozma and her book in her own words.<\/p>\n

Meet Ozma Mushtaque\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Ozma Mushtaque is a teacher<\/em> by profession but an artist<\/em> at heart. She loves to read, write, do poetry recitals<\/em>. Moreover, she is a huge fan of theatre. Ozma dreams of performing in the theatre one day. As an individual she is someone who loves to explore<\/em> life with all its complications<\/em>, and tries to make the best out of it.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI love to inspire and be a positive influence for the people around me.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cThe realm of darkness\u201d is Ozma\u2019s debut poetry collection. Currently, she is working on a screenplay<\/em> and a short stories collection<\/em>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Realm of Darkness<\/h2>\n

The book, “The Realm of Darkness”<\/a>, is a collection of poems that carry diversity in it, it covers almost every human emotion<\/em>. The poems are full of life<\/em>, vigor<\/em>, energy<\/em> and spirit<\/em>. The poetess seems to be doing all the efforts to infuse a positive energy into the readers. You go through various colors<\/em> and moods<\/em> reading this collection. In addition, each time you find yourself relating to the situation in numerous ways. The poems have a breath of freshness<\/em> for a mind that long has been gloomy<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\"Ozma
The realm of darkness<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This book will be a driving force<\/em> for people who have lost motivation<\/em> in life owing to some bad life experiences. It has got the power to lift up<\/em> the souls, that have long lost interest in life. More precisely, the book bears a healing power.<\/em>\u00a0For the words seen coming from a broken heart<\/em> instead of getting shattered<\/em> decided to collect all the broken pieces<\/em> and started a new journey<\/em> of helping others heal.<\/p>\n

What has inspired you to write?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

‘First of all, life itself. Secondly, Urdu literature<\/em> too has had a deep influence<\/em> on my life. I was drawn to the world of books from an early age. Moreover, having literature majors<\/em> helped me explore work around the world era wise. It has helped me to understand humans.\u00a0<\/span>The major inspirations so far have been Manto, Mazhar ul Islam, Sylvia Plath and Emily Bront\u00eb.<\/em> You might find some references or similarities in my works. Another inspiration for my poetry is death<\/em>. Death has always inspired me since my teens. <\/span>For me, it is the beginning<\/em> of a new life rather than an end. This has kept me upright in my life despite the struggles<\/em> that life continues to throw.’<\/span><\/p>\n

What made you think of taking up such a dark theme? Is it personal at any level?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

‘Very personal I would say, as it carves out all the struggles that I have been through in different phases. Furthermore<\/span>, I believe most of us experience a dark phase<\/em> in life, no matter how brief it may be. My work is an ode<\/em> and a catharsis<\/em> of those dark times. However, it also tries to send a message that \u201cafter every night, there is dawn\u201d<\/em>. Therefore, do not lose hope and just keep on going.’\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Is there any hope in your work?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Yes, not very much evident, but it is there. You just need to see through it. I am an optimistic<\/em> person, so I have high hopes. I never wanted my work to be a dead end<\/em> rather I want it to tell you how you need to draw strength<\/em> from within yourself. You need to trust yourself to fight the world and make your mark. Don’t let people tell you that you are non-existent<\/em> or your presence doesn’t matter. It is you who is going to make sure that you exist with everything. Accept your low times<\/em> and then move forward with more strength<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n

How do you see life through your work?<\/span><\/h2>\n

‘Shattered<\/em>, falling down<\/em> and getting up<\/em> on my feet without compromising <\/em>myself.\u00a0 Life through my work seems dark<\/em>, which might put some people off or discourage<\/em> them, but then \u201chow would you know the importance of light without darkness?\u201d<\/em> Darkness helps in self realisation<\/em>. It makes you aware of your purpose<\/em> in life. It helps you to contemplate<\/em> on your part. No one can come and tell you who you are. It’s your journey to explore yourself.’<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u201cDarkness is not a dead end, it prepares you for the worst and makes you stronger and brave to face the cruel world.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Ozma Mushtaque talks about Daastan<\/h2>\n

‘Pakistani authors face a lot of publishing problems<\/em> due to various reasons. They do not have enough support<\/em> or platform<\/em> to launch themselves. Since\u00a0<\/span>Daastan has been a pioneer in taking this matter in their hands, they make sure that our young writers<\/em> do not suffer<\/em>.\u00a0<\/span>The best thing about Dastaan is that it lets you be who you are. There are no restrictions<\/em> for the writers<\/em> or the content<\/em>. That is why recently there has been a surge in the publishing \u00a0industry and the themes have been quite different.’<\/span><\/p>\n

Ozma Mushtaque shares her reading preferences\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

‘I have deep interest in philosophical work, historical fiction and sufism<\/em>.\u00a0 Other than horror<\/em>, I can read anything for pleasure. The authors whose works that I absolutely love are Ibn e Khildun, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Toni Morrision, Khushwant Singh, Bapsi Sidhwa, Arundhati Roy, Fehmida Riaz, and Kishwar Naheed.’<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Message for audience\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

‘Try to find what your soul<\/em> wants. A peaceful<\/em> soul can make you happy<\/em> with the minimum<\/em>. Do not underestimate your abilities<\/em> no matter whatever happens. Be like a plant which is equally useful when it’s not alive. Stay positive and always trust yourself. You will get through the hard times.’\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
