IBNA reports that Foreign Ministry to introduce Iranian novels to the world, as Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast has said:
All Iranian novels will soon be supported by Iran's Foreign Ministry's new department, Center on Public Diplomacy, and introduced to the world.Anything that wrests any control from everybody's favorite two-in-one governmental institution, the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance, can only be welcomed, but somehow I have my doubts about "all" Iranian novels getting support (much less being introduced to the world, sigh).
