A feature interview with Shahriar Mandanipour, one of the most accomplished and successful writers of contemporary Iranian literature. Shahriar sits down with Jian for a wide-ranging interview about war, love, censorship, living in exile, being one of the top Iranian writers almost murdered on a fateful bus trip in the 1990s, and his latest novel, Moon Brow. Plus Mona from Melbourne with the “Persian Proverb of the Week,” and the Roqe Team combs through a variety of harsh reactions to a recent interview.
