کتاب کا نام اس کی آخری کہانی "خط مرموز" پر رکھا گیا ہے ۔ دس کہانیوں پر مبنی اس کتاب میں تمام کہانیاں اپنے اندر کوئی نہ کوئی پیغام سموئے ہوئی ہے ۔ پہلی کہانی محبت کا پیغام دے رہی ہے تو بعد کی کہانیوں میں زمانے کے درد، عورتوں میں خوف، سماجی رابطے اور وقت کے نشیب و فرازکو بتایا گیا ہے۔ مصنفہ کے بارے میں مشہور ہے کہ وہ جب شعر کہتی ہیں تو اس میں زمانے کا درد ہوتا ہے اور جب کہانیاں لکھتی ہیں تو ان کی ہر کہانی تجربات اور مشاہدات سے لبریز ہوتی ہے۔ زیر نظر کتاب کی تمام کہانیوں میں قاری کو زمانے کا درد اور نئے تجربات کا سامنا ہوگا۔
