Fereshteh Sari

One of us should have told her
"یکی از ما باید به او میگفت" 
Published 1387

Ms. Sari's poems have a dream-like atmosphere and many are about very modern, traditionally un-poetic concepts: black holes, atomic energy, spam mail. Although her poems need to be developed and structured much more to reach greatness, her chosen subjects draw parallels with Wislawa Szymborska's poetic look at scientific concepts. There are a handful of good poems in this book that make it worth reading.
