Deep description of Iran people,
By
This review is from: Stories from Iran: A Chicago Anthology 1921-1991 (Paperback)
I found this book very interesting. Actually I bought the book to know more about Iran people and more or less I could see better. This anthology spread from 1921 to 1991, an enough comprehensive to review Iran literature, especially in short stories, a new genre in Iran literature.

Good if you love Iranian Fiction,
By Taimur M. Khan (Philadelphia,PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stories from Iran: A Chicago Anthology 1921-1991 (Paperback)
I had to read this book for an Asian and Middle Eastern History course at the University of Pennsylvania.This book is composed of many short stories like Mirza,Abji Khanom,etc.The writers are some of the best fiction writers Iran has produced.A good book is you like to read about fiction etc.This book gives you a good idea about writers in a foreign country and also about Iran.Some stories are about the secret actions of dissident Iranians as they challenge their own repressive government in order to bring democracy to their homeland.Others tell of the religious life in Iran.Overall, a good book for all people interested in History/Iran/Literature.
