Hadim, Kiamal-din

Born 1907 in Kama, Nangarhar Province. Afghan poet, publicist, and social figure. Writes in Pashto and Dari.

His essays of this type are collected in New Life (1941), World of Dreams (1960), and Talent and Genius (1961); his short stories, in which he attacks obsolete customs, are collected in Hand of Fate (1945), Woman From the Viewpoint of the Afghans (1948), and The Observer (1967).
