CHARACTER
We are humble people. It is in our blood
Architecture is the art of living which is documented sometimes in the heart of a rock or it is molded as a mud brick or raised in the shape of a dome. Studying the architecture of a nation gives one insights on its peopleís personality and their characteristics. Iranian architecture is humble, pragmatic, and progressive as much of its creators the Iranians. I am not talking about the bad copies of Frank Lloyd Wright, Philip Johnson, or Le Corbusierís master pieces in northern Tehran. I am talking about the architecture of the old fabric of Yazd, Isfahan, Shiraz, Boushehr, Kerman, Mahan, Semnan, Kashan, Zanjan, Tabriz, and so on

Where blowing up children is no news?
Early Saturday morning, poured myself a cup of coffee lazily threw myself on the sofa and turned the TV on, Aljazeera’s news. One suicide bomb after the other had torn people into pieces in Pakistan, Iraq and Afghanistan. When the news got to Afghanistan, I felt sick to my stomach. This bomb had taken its victims among children. 6 kids were blown up. The faces of their mothers and fathers came in front of my eyes, crying, pulling their hairs, kneeling on the ground, their faces covered with tears, blood and mud. This is not any thing out of the ordinary any more. It is part of every day life in Afghanistan and Iraq. And exactly this is the problem. We have got used to it.

A conversation with Manoucher Parvin on his latest novel, "Alethophobia"
Recently Dr. Parvin sent me a copy of his just-published novel, Alethophobia.
Before reading it, I always assumed that the ultimate sanctuary of
truth is the world of academia. Apparently this is not always so. The
main character in Alethophobia, Professor Pirooz, tells how the
fear of truth (alethophobia) affected the lives of a nexus of students,
faculty and administrators on the seemingly serene campus of a
midwestern university in the 1980’s, and how it threatened to
compromise academic freedom as well as his own career. I offered to interview Dr. Parvin about the book, and he agreed. Since
we have not yet met in person, this conversation was carried out via
phone and email

POETRY
Why are you scared of me?
You say it is my eyes
But my darling, my eyes are only a reflection of yours
Why will you no longer hold me?
You say it is my pain
But what pain I have, you have given me
It dripped from you and I drank it up
It sustains me
And as I look down into the cup from which it pours
At the dark residue it leaves burned at the bottom
