Explore how ten Iranian authors grapple with the past and imagine the future in Iran at this special Nowruz Festival talk.
'Iran +100' poses a question to ten Iranian authors: What might Iran look like in the year 2053, a century after the coup that overthrew the democratically-elected prime minister Mohammad Mosaddegh?
During this special book event with Comma Press, you'll hear readings from this powerful anthology, followed by a panel discussion with contributors from the book including the editor Leila Elder, Alireza Abiz and more. From the sinking of Tehran into a great, tourist-attracting ‘Pit’, to inter-dimensional voids revealing parallel universes, these stories explore contemporary concerns extrapolated into strange futures, demonstrating how old struggles can always find new forms of expression.
Iran +100 will be available for purchase at the talk for £11, or you can purchase it online here.
