Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The subject of these poems is the human being in an age of pain and gallows. This human has nowhere to go, yet they seize them and forcibly take them somewhere: they shove them into a patrol jeep, or cram them into an unmarked garage among a mass of detainees. In one place there is a little girl who, as a child, wanders the streets with her mother looking for votive food offerings so she can fill her stomach; elsewhere, at the age of ten, she has fled from the alleys of her childhood in impoverished neighborhoods into the desert so she won't be forced into marriage. Somewhere she has run into the street with disheveled hair and fallen into the hands of plainclothes agents; somewhere she has been arrested in front of a newspaper kiosk; elsewhere, in the dark of night, a woman-stabbed by her suspicious husband-has fallen to the ground, bloody: screams and shouts in the heart of the darkness shatter the windows in merciless alleys. Every day is a day of mourning. Everywhere they chant laments and dirges, and the streets are full of shadows and the dead. The dead lie scattered on the ground like autumn leaves. When you open the door, you must be careful not to crush them underfoot.Akbar Fallahzadeh earned his bachelor's degree in Dramatic Literature from the Faculty of Dramatic Arts in Tehran and received his PhD in Modern German Literature and Media Studies from the University of Marburg, Germany. His first book was a translation of the play Easter by August Strindberg, which was banned in the mid-1980s due to its anti-war and peace-promoting preface. He has been a writer for Radio Zamaneh for many years and has also translated The Death Penalty: History, Origins, and Victims by the German author Karl Bruno Leder. This item is printed on demand.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A collection of short stories by Akbar Fallahzadeh. The author's note on the book: The stories in this collection were written at different times, but they all reflect the realities of our era: an era of pain and displacement. The earlier stories in this collection come from a time when we, along with fellow theater and storytelling enthusiasts (in the early 1980s), would write and read plays and stories together. We were all alike: young, passionate about reading and writing, poor and thin, yet hopeful, with eyes gleaming, searching for freedom and justice, clad in oversized, pocket-filled coats that held all our possessions. In the wide underarm pockets, we carried our own or our friends' stories and plays, passing them hand to hand, since censorship wouldn't allow them to be printed. On one side, there was the Iran-Iraq war, and everywhere else, there were street patrol jeeps. In the midst of this, we would nervously read, write, smoke, smoke, smoke, and cough. When we got hungry, we'd share a sandwich. No one would give us work. To get a job, you needed approval from the local committee or mosque, and if we showed up around those places, we'd end up getting arrested. Each of us, in our own way, had said 'no' to the authorities, and we were paying the heavy price of that 'no' in our daily lives. From the Cultural Revolution (May 1980) to the bitter poison of the ceasefire and the massacre of political prisoners (summer 1988), these were the hardest and most painful years of our lives-perhaps for all generations throughout Iranian history. We, mostly 20- to 25-year-olds, were suddenly crushed and aged fifty years. We grew old without ever having experienced youth. Back then, reading and writing were suspicious activities. We engaged in this 'suspicious' act with fear and trembling. We critiqued stories hastily, often standing up, and sometimes even fought over them. Several stories in this collection are from or influenced by that time. Other stories, written years later in exile, still carry the mood of those years, with their pain and fears. Fear, pain, and insecurity have deeply rooted themselves in us, and they cannot be removed. This collection, however, is not devoid of other subjects, including daily life in exile and the virtual world. The virtual life has long since become part of our existence. A few of the stories explore the interaction between traditional life and the virtual world.
