Description
'The Book of Sounds, ' released as a dual language edition as part of The Operating System's "Glossarium:: Unsilenced Texts" series, is Mehdi Navid's first novelette, translated from the Farsi by Tina Rahimi. The book was not publishable in Iran.
The Book of Sounds is an honest exploration of the socio-political context of contemporary Iran, the challenges, hopes and dreams of actual people living in this context, much like the book's characters, among the pages of an episode-- a space whose "door" is to be eventually "turned over as a page."
Through Navid's inventive poetic prose, sounds evolve into the main filter through which the narration takes place. Throughout the book, the reader will notice an unconventional use of syntax, and a fresh approach to auditory imagery, which is uniquely married to the common logic of everyday words.
