The author as a reader
Radio Zamaneh’s poetry feature presents Mohammad Tangestani’s The Sunflower with a reading in the poet’s voice and comments by Esmail Khoi and Rabihavi. The poem is Tangestani’s work; Rabihavi’s contribution is a brief critical response. Source 1
Rabihavi connects the poem’s despair with the society in which its author grew up, while finding pleasure in the joining of that despair with a situation of love. The passage records him as a reader of another writer’s work. The original page keeps the poem, its performance and the two comments together; no complete poem or unverified transcript is republished here. Source 1
