PERSIAN GIRLS READING, followed by q&a, booksigning, reception, Free and open to the public
New York Saturday - March 17, 2012 03:30 PM
FREE and open to the public
March 17, Thursday, 3:30-5:30 PM
Nahid Rachlin reading from PERSIAN GIRLS(Penguin), memoir-growing up as a young girl in Iran- followed by Q&A, booksigning, reception
Subway connections: very close to the event address:
2 and 3, 4 and 5, A, C all stop at Borough Hall
R stops at Court Street
Review excerpts about PERSIAN GIRLS:
NPR, THE WORLD, : Selected by Christopher Merrill, the Director of Iowa International Writing Program as one of the best four books of the year. "If you want to know what it was like to grow up in Iran this is the book to read. Rachlin, the author of five previous works of fiction, including the much acclaimed Foreigner, begins her story at the age of nine, when she was taken away from the only mother she had ever known—her aunt, as it happens—and returned to a family in which the prospects of her becoming a writer were, at best, dim. But her portrait of the artist in an Islamic country on the verge of dramatic change is filled with light."
BOSTON GLOBE:
"Persian Girls, reads like a novel -- suspenseful, vivid, heartbreaking. In "Persian Girls, Rachlin chronicles her choices and those made by her sisters, her mother and her aunts, throwing the door to her family's home wide open. Readers who follow her through will be wiser, and moved."
BIO:
Nahid Rachlin attended Columbia University MFA program on a Doubleday-Columbia Fellowship and then went on to Stanford University program on a Stegner Fellowship. Her publications include a memoir, PERSIAN GIRLS (Penguin), four novels, JUMPING OVER FIRE (City Lights), FOREIGNER (W.W. Norton), MARRIED TO A STRANGER (E.P.Dutton), THE HEART'S DESIRE (City Lights), and a collection of short stories, VEILS (City Lights). Her individual stories have appeared in about fifty magazines. One of her stories was produced by Symphony Space, “Selected Shorts” and was aired on NPR’s around the country.
Her work has been translated into Portuguese, Dutch, Arabic, and Farsi. She has won many awards, including the Bennet Cerf Award, PEN Syndicated Fiction Project Award, and a National Endowment for the Arts grant.
