Synopsis

When the final battle is over
a scratch is enough
against the untuned wind
when the final battle is over
the wound is where the light enters
when the final battle is over
the fairy tales grow beautiful again
The poems in this collection retell personal experiences but also trace the destiny of several others. These poems will give people who never have gone through war and emigration an experience that the media does not cover.
Namdar Nasser's poetry is accessible, full of images, and has a vivid narrative.

About this title

About the Author

Namdar Nasser was born in Tehran, Iran in 1963. He works as a consultant in graphic design and is also active as a writer, translator, publisher and lecturer.
In his teens he experienced the social uprising that led to the monarchy being replaced by the current regime.
Just a few years later Namdar was forced to participate in the war with neighbouring Iraq, like so many young men of his generation. At twenty he left Iran and was marooned in Turkey for two years before he moved to Sweden in 1985.
