The 16th Karachi Literature Festival (KLF) concluded on Sunday, Feb 9, after three days of impassioned dialogue, cultural performances, and literary exploration. Themed “Narratives from the Soil,” the event brought together academics, writers, thinkers, artists, and policymakers from Pakistan and beyond, to explore stories rooted in local landscapes while addressing global challenges. Over 50 sessions, 30+ book launches, and vibrant youth engagement underscored literature’s power to bridge divides and amplify Pakistan’s cultural heritage.
