This book is an easy-to-read anthology of modern Persian poems. While this anthology by no means represents all modern Persian poets and their masterworks, the poems presented in this book have been carefully selected solely based on ease of language, for learning purposes. As a result, some modern Persian poets and their masterpieces have been excluded because of the complexity of their poems. The poems in this anthology have been sequenced based on ease, from easy to more difficult, regardless of the poet. Therefore, you may find various poems from the same poet at various points throughout this selection. To ease your learning experience, the difficult terms in each poem have been underlined and translations of those terms have been provided at the end of each poem. A brief biography of each featured poet has also been provided at the end of the book.

Iran and the Persian language have a rich poetic heritage, extending for more than a thousand years from the classical era of 10-17th centuries to the present day. The greatest classical poet was Shams od-Din Mohammad Hâfez and this imaginative selection opens with poets inspired by Hâfez; he then moves on to Yushij, Shamlu and other poets of the Shah's time, to the left-wing poets who rebelled against the Shah and also against the Islamic Revolution. Women poets are included, such as Forugh Farrokhzâd, Shâdâb Vajdi and Minâ Asadi. Mahmud Kianush also contributes a long introduction about Persian culture and language.

With the unleashing of the "War on Terror" in the aftermath of 9/11, Afghanistan has become prominent in the news. However, we need to appreciate that no substantive understanding of contemporary history, politics and society of this country can be achieved without a thorough analysis of the Afghan encounter with cultural and literary modernity and modernization. Modern Persian Literature in Afghanistan does just that. The book offers a balanced and interdisciplinary analysis of the rich and admirable contemporary poetry and fiction of a land long tormented by wars and invasions. It sets out to demonstrate that, within the trajectory of the union between modern aesthetic imagination and politics, creativity and production, and representation and history, the modernist intervention enabled many contemporary poets and writers of fiction to resist the overt politicization of the literary field, without evading politics or disavowing the modern state. The interpretative moves and nuanced readings of a series of literary texts make this book a major contribution to a rather neglected area of research and study.
