foreginer appreciates modernist movement in iran
by fozolie on Fri Jul 24, 2009 06:30 AM PDTOff topic but his book on Mani was amazing. Think it was called Gardens of Light. I understood how those Budha statues in Afghanistan could have come about (freedom of worship in eastern part of Greater Iran).
Mr. Fozolie
She is very popular in France and Europe in general
by Darius Kadivar on Thu Jul 23, 2009 01:46 AM PDTIndeed she is quite popular in the French intellectual circles. I am not as enthusiastic about her work but I know that many actors love her writing because it gives them a great deal of satisfaction in terms of performing and dialogue.
As for Amin Maalouf who is Lebanese he is a great thinker and has a perfect knowledge of the history and culture of Iran. I particularly loved his book Samarkand.
thanks
by fozolie on Wed Jul 22, 2009 03:02 PM PDTI have ordered a couple of her books. There are some really interesting Iranians around. Hungarian/Iranian mix!
Reading the reviews I wish I had seen her play Art.
Also good to see someone like her break into the very narow minded introvert Anglo-Saxon literary world. It is not easy to get translations of good foreign authors. Last one I enjoyed was Amin Malouf and that's quite a while ago.
