Standing in the Cold

<p>'Nasrin Mahoutchi-Hosaini's first collection of short fiction reveals symmetries of memory hauntings and exile. Her fictional worlds conjure enchanted waterways devilish spirits the Iranian Folkloric and the unexplored Australian suburbia of immigrants. Her dark lens exposes the fault lines in marriages bewilderments between cultures and the deathly games humans play. Her vision is the season of metissage between the ancient and modern Middle East and the West of myth.' - Christopher Cyrill Senior Editor <em>Aletheia Literary Quarterly</em></p><p><br></p>
