Abstract
Generally Qudrat Ullah Shahab's Shahab Nama is placed amongst the auto-biographies yet its craft, style, structure and a blend of reality with imagination arise the question whether we should consider it a biography, an auto-biography, a piece of fiction, sketches or a book on history. This article is an attempt to determine the genre of Shahab Nama by analyzing it in the light of art of fiction, sketch writing, biography and history. The study concludes that Shahab Nama is neither a pure biography, nor a fiction or the history; in fact it is a mixture of all these prose forms.
