- Summary:
- Iranian poet and filmmaker FORUGH FARROKHZAD spoke the unspeakable, writing about her own sensual experiences at a time and in a place where she was reviled for it. After divorcing her husband, she lost the custody of her son and was shamed by her society. Ultimately, she prevailed, revered for her breath-taking work... but her life was cut short in mysterious circumstances. Today she is considered the most significant female poet of Iran. Sholeh Wolpé translates and illuminates this audacious artist.
