the-birdie, Ghulam Abbas wrote only in Urdu. 'Overcoat' is one of his most famous afsanas (short-story). He wrote hundreds of marvelous short-stories. He is of the same stature as Krishan Chandar, Manto, and Ismat Chughtai.
I do not know if his work is translated into English. However, I have English translation of Ahmed Shah Patras Bukhari's book 'Pataras ke Mazameen' in PDF format. Patars is one of the most acclaimed Urdu writers and intellectuals. His writings are considered classic in Urdu literature. Let me know if you are interested in his work.
