Ehsan Norouzi

Our partners

Ehsan Norouzi is a non-fiction writer based in Tehran. His books, all presented as travel narratives, are each a personal quest to find and record our subjective geographical and historical coordinates.

 

After his European travelogue comparing his experience to a 19th century Iranian traveler’s, and his acclaimed book on his train trips in Iran mixed with the history of railroad, Norouzi's current project intends to map the Iranian modern prose, an effort started by the literary figures outside the country's borders. The project tries to use maps and letters not only as literary themes but as new potentialities for writing.
