The Iran Book News Agency has a long interview with me, if you're interested (in Persian, too, if you prefer).
(Note that some things clearly got a bit distorted in translation or transcription -- starting with the fact that I'm not a member of PEN. Maybe confusion with the National Book Critics Circle ? (Though I'm currently told that, despite them cashing my membership renewal check in February (and receiving an e-mail confirming "Welcome Again to the NBCC") they consider my membership expired, sigh .....))
