Hello, I am Filza Riaz!

Welcome to The Filza, a space where literature is treated not as escape, but as inquiry. From world literature and the poetics of resistance to the quiet beauty of a perfect sentence, this is for those who read slowly and think deeply. It is a space for the reader who carries a pen in hand, believing that reading is a form of thinking and a way to be seen.
