Zakir’s first book “The Wail of The Woods” was published in 2019.
“That lays a strong impression even at present time on my nerves, and new ideas start to trickle from it and I still seek inspiration from its strata and themes in particular,” he said.

Its content fills the reader’s heart and mind with what next and how to overcome,” Zakir said—(KNO)
