To this song, Nooshin and I locked lips 36 years ago in an underground Tehran discoteque .. and took off on our [everlasting] FIVE month sensual journey together. I was 18 … She was 1å7. 1974.
I had known about Persian literature and Hafez before, but in polite assembly only. I had known about Western music and the 60’s culture, but only from a distant.
to hear this beautiful stanza set to “Barry White” sensual music, in a dungeon, at 18, in my Tehran, with a angelic figure in my arms, sent me off the path of prudence. I lost my virginity to love.
