What happens when even moonlight begins to rot?

When Moonlight Rots… is a collection of fifty-two poems by Mehdi Ghorban-Nia, exploring solitude, mortality, longing, memory, and the fragile distance between simply being alive and truly feeling alive.

Moving between intimate confession, surreal imagery, Persian landscapes, ancient mythology, and dreamlike visions, these poems create a world where the body becomes a season, beauty lives beside decay, and silence can hold the weight of a scream.

Across lyrical poems, fractured language, and eight music-inspired “Movements”, Ghorban-Nia returns to questions that resist easy answers:

What remains when words fail us?
How do we live with what we cannot explain?
Why do we continue to reach for light, even in darkness?

Despite its shadows, this is also a book about tenderness: remembered places, the ache of another person’s absence, and the quiet hope that pain becomes more bearable when it is shared.

For readers drawn to dark poetry, surreal and symbolic imagery, existential themes, and contemporary Persian literature, When Moonlight Rots… offers a deeply personal and atmospheric reading experience.

A poetry collection for those who have ever felt that some emotions are too large for ordinary language.

This edition has been published in both Persian and English by Senliz Publishing House in the United Kingdom.
