Shahin Ehsan was born in Tehran in 1941, raised by parents who dared to be seekers and move with the times to become Baha’i’s in Iran in and around 1945. Their journey and life as Baha’is set into Shahin, as a child, an identity of belonging to ‘world citizenship’ rather than prejudiced ways of provincial Iran. As life would have it, in 1978, with the Islamic Revolution, Shahin was finally uprooted from Iran and without surprise has stitched together through short stories in this book, the psyche of prejudice that has lead to the destruction of the Middle East and Iran, and continues to burn through the fabric of life everywhere. Shahin has also written other books on the Quran “The Quran and The eternal Covenant of God” written in Farsi and translated into English & “a Drop” Poetry in Farsi with her husband Parviz Rohani. “Memories of Shirin” is her first book written in Farsi and Translated to English by Mehr Mansuri.
