Locked up with the scum of American society Shahrzad witnesses more than her fair share of depravity and fights tooth and claw to get back to her girls. Only after five years in a US prison does she finally manage to shake him five years that will test her fortitude and faith to the very limit. Just as she thinks she's given him the slip her phone rings and it's him. In the hope of changing her stars Shahrzad leaves Iran but Masuod, a seasoned charlatan follows. Her second marriage proves just as tumultuous as the first. Barely out of her twenties Shahrzad becomes a divorcee with two children. Reza and his family are harboring a dark secret though a secret that will inevitably rip them apart. To Shahrzad's surprise she finds her husband isn't an overbearing possessive man but a fun loving companion who has no intention of clipping her wings. At the tender age of eighteen Shahrzad's parents manage to cajole their vivacious daughter into marrying a young man called Reza hoping matrimony will temper her strong-willed nature. Her childhood years are marred by eight years of war with Iraq but her zest for life survives Saddam Hussein's bombardments. Publisher by : Createspace Independent Publishing Platformĭescription : Shahrzad Mirgholikhan was born in 1977 in an Iran teetering on the brink of great change. And yet, throughout this apparent free-for-all, History as we know it persists." The upshot of all that theorizing is a densely and decoratively set compendium of material from Pliny the Elder, Michael Jackson and Christopher Columbus, among other luminaries, set under headings including "The Death of the Historian," "The Great Wall of China," "Mystery" and "Ali G." In the words of the collective: "These days, it seems that even in those prosperous, provincial environs we call the West, history is becoming a more complex affair than the Eurocentric teleology of 'how we ended up the joyous pinnacle of civilization, happy as pigs in shit.'. The Shahrzad collective (Shirana Shahbazi, Manuel Krebs, Tirdad Zolghadr) once again tackles geopolitical aesthetics via idiosyncratic linkages of metonymy and allegory, textual poetics and iconic images, blunt content and overbearing design.
