Abstract

Manto has not only brought the art of fiction writing to its zenith with the help of his intellect and creative abilities but has also expressed his critical insight in his criticism. As a critic of life, he not only creates super humans but also seems to explain his typical point of view about man, life, society and different aspects of art with full faith while expressing his critical sense in his non-fiction writings. From this aspect his critical writings are no less important than his fiction writings. Although Manto's prime importance is of a fiction writer, but by the way his critical intellect has evolved in his criticism that has bestowed him the status of a critic. Furthermore, his style is adorned with creative criticism that attracts us towards it. His critical writings also provide reasons if he is a fiction writer from a specific stand point then why is it so? What does he think about man, society, life, literature and art? Henceforth why his point of view is different from others? Along with these several types of questions Manto's critical intellect gets prominent in art in humans which indirectly determines ways where their point of views find open and direct expression in his critical thinking. Therefore, there is a specific sequence in his fiction writings and critical thinking.
