Mandanipour, banned from publication in his native Iran, vividly renders the individual consciousness in extremis from a variety of perspectives: young and old, man and woman, conscript and prisoner. While delivering a ferocious social critique, these stories are steeped in the poetry and stark beauty of an ancient land and culture.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 209mmItem Length: 133mmAuthor: Shahriar MandanipourTranslator: Sara KhaliliContributor: Sara Khalili (Translated by)Genre: FictionTopic: Historical FictionRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
