Website editorial note. The commentary below is not authored by Ghazi Rabihavi.

Aasoo publishes the original Persian interview. This page is a website editorial guide, not an English transcript or a translation of the conversation. The interview contains attributed personal testimony and the interviewer’s framing; those are distinct from independently verified historical claims.

A conversation, in context.

Maryam Foumani asks Rabihavi about writing amid war, the circumstances around his stories, and returning to that period in Boys of Love. The exchange moves between personal recollection and questions of literary practice.

Read with the speaker in mind: a question and its reply have different voices. The original page retains that exchange. This guide offers an entry point without replacing either voice.
