YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAn acclaimed fiction writer in her native Iran, Taraghi has been a Paris expatriate since the Iranian revolution. Her work has been widely anthologized, but only now is a substantial selection of her short stories available in English. Exploring themes of alienation and revolution, identity and change, these works are grounded in Taraghi's experiences even as they have a universal appeal. Taraghi will be in conversation with Azar Nafisi, author of Reading Lolita in Tehran.
