Dar Abad (Somewhere Called Home) is a hauntingly lyrical collection of contemporary Persian poetry that moves between the personal and the political, the intimate and the infinite.
Written with raw honesty and quiet defiance, these poems explore solitude, belonging, exile, memory, and the fragile beauty of language itself.
The poet weaves together themes of longing, dislocation, silence, and self-reconstruction in a voice that is both deeply rooted in classical Persian aesthetics and boldly modern in tone.
Whether in minimalist verse or lush imagery, Dar Abad asks:
What remains when everything else is stripped away?
Where does the poet live when there is no home but the poem itself?
With its deep cultural undertones and universal emotional force, Dar Abad invites readers into a space where pain becomes poetry, and poetry becomes survival.
