In Interruptions, Massud Alemi creates a vivid, powerful picture of Iran.

He brings to life, in telling scenes, the reality of people’s daily

existence, with all the secrets they have to keep, conspiracies they are

forced into, and the violations of their rights that they have to deal with.

He connects the history of Iran with the present in an interesting

weave.

Massud Alemi's Interruptions is a welcome addition to the many

narratives about Iran and its recent troubled history. Alemi offers

another point of view on the chaotic and turbulent times that

surrounded the Iranian revolution and gives us the opportunity to see

how history tears open a human life and simultaneously exposes all

the cracks in a nation, a culture, a people. In fiction, we sometimes

see what we can't face in reality.

—Persis M. Karim, editor and contributing poet, LET ME TELL YOU WHERE I'VE

BEEN: New Writing by Women of the Iranian Diaspora
