Abstract

"Taparvasni" (Gypsy) is the second collection of Parveen Atif's travelogues, which came out in 1995 after a gap of eight years from his earlier collection "Kiran, Titli Aur Bagole". Parveen Atif traveled to different cities and wrote these travelogues by dividing them into different chapters. In this travelogue, visits to Luckhnow (India), Buenos Aires (Argentina), Amsterdam (Holland), Peking (China) and Hiroshima (Japan) have been described; whereas visits to London (UK) and Damascus (Syria) have also been mentioned. The purpose of the visits included in this travelogue contains engagements in sports (hockey) and allied official duties. This article presents an intellectual review of the said travelogues highlighting their literary, observational and cultural importance.
