Jacket design by Bob Silverman. keywords: Literature Iran Translated . FROM THE PUBLISHER - This collection of Gholam-Hossein Sa'edi's stories opens a new vista into the understanding of Iranian life. A dissident writer who fled the Shah's rule, Sa'edi's fiction partakes of and reflects the customs, the religion and the way of life in Iran. The title story, 'Dandil,' is about the pecuniary aspirations of the people in a poverty-stricken town, as they expose the charm and beauty of a young girl to an American soldier. In the second tale, 'The Game Is Over,' an Iranian Tom Sawyer fakes his own death as revenge against his drunken, cruel father, but falls to the very death he staged a few days earlier. 'The Rubbish Heap' tells of the harsh practice of selling blood to earn a few pennies. 'Keykãvus, Baldy and Me' is based on the disparity between the mentalities of a small, backward town official and three documentary filmmakers from the city. Each story is filled with human irony and political metaphor. Sa'edi shows us an Iran never in the news - an Iran of ordinary people with hopes, fears and sorrows. In this compelling collection, Sa'edi bridges a profound cultural gap to bring us a work of scope, sensitivity and importance. inventory #6383 Some Foxing On Top Edge, Otherwise Very Good in Dustjacket.

Condición: new. Traduzione di Bertotti F. Torino, 2020; br., pp. 154, cm 14,5x21,5. (Senza Frontiere). È un Oriente contemporaneo, lontano dagli stereotipi occidentali ma non per questo meno appassionante e misterioso, quello che vive nei racconti di S?'edi: brevi, intense vicende in cui il bizzarro, il fantastico, l'imprevedibile si mescolano a una realtà obiettivamente ritratta nel suo intreccio di tradizione e innovazione, di religiosità antica e laicità moderna. In uno il ritrovamento di una cassa di metallo in un burrone porterà all'edificazione di un santuario; in un altro, un bambino che vaga da solo in riva al mare viene portato al villaggio da due pescatori, dove susciterà una diffidenza e una paura crescenti; un altro ancora segue la strana giornata di uno studente universitario, il quale si sente così felice e in pace con il mondo che potrebbe anche uccidersi.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. "The Cannon" is the first and best of Gholam-Hossein Sa'edi's novels. It has an unwavering focus on a single character, the independent itinerant Mullah Mir Hashem who is clever and manipulative. Based on historical events, the novel is set in north-western Iran in the early twentieth century. It features tribal supporters of the Constitutional Revolution; Russian Cossacks who are backing the status quo; and Mullah Mir Hashem. The novel offers a glimpse into the tensions and machinations of the revo-lution, where each party is attempting to outwit, out-manoeuvre and otherwise deceive the other. For most of the narrative Mir Hashem seems to have outsmarted the others. The story comes to an intriguing and unpredictable end. A novel that offers a glimpse into the tensions and machinations of the Constitutional Revolution, where each party is attempting to outwit, out-manoeuvre and otherwise deceive the other.

Soft cover. Condición: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First edition (English), first printing. Soft cover. Photographically illustrated, laminated stiff wrappers; no dust jacket as issued. Photographs by Gilles Peress. Telexed messages by Gilles Peress and Magnum staff. Essay by Gholam-Hossein Sa'edi. Includes a timeline of events, captions to the photographs, and biographies on the contributors. Designed by Gilles Peress, Tarcus, and Claude Nori, with Nan Richardson. 104 pp., with black-and-white plates throughout beautifully printed on heavy paper. 15 x 10-5/8 inches. Scarce. [Cited in Martin Parr and Gerry Badger, The Photobook: A History, Volume II. (London and New York: Phaidon, 2006).]. Near Fine (creases to lower corners of cover, 1/8-inch abrasion to left edge of rear cover and light wear to the extremities; spine uncracked and binding tight). From Parr and Badger: "[Telex: Iran] is one of the key works in what might be termed a postmodern approach to photojournalism, where the photographer seems to critique and comment on his or her purpose whilst trying to fulfill it. Telex: Iran is exemplary in this regard. The book was shot over a five-week period from December 1979 to January 1980, during the Iran 'hostage crisis,' when Islamic fundamentalists, encouraged by the fledgling revolutionary government of the Ayatollah Khomeini, seized the United States Embassy in Tehran and held 52 Americans hostage, in protest at American refusal to return the ousted Shah for trial and certain execution. Peress traveled around Iran, trying to understand both the basis for the revolution and the mindset of a people who were demonized in the US media. His pictures portray not only his attempt to comprehend what was going on, but also the attempts of many of the Iranians he was photographing . Peress does not add traditional, explanatory captions, but instead includes excerpts from the telexes exchanged between himself and the Magnum offices in Paris and New York. These communications, which today would be cellphone text messages or e-mails, give cryptic insights into Peress's understanding of how the story was developing, as well as the practical difficulties facing any photojournalist in a confused and volatile political situation.".
