by Mohammad Forouzani (Foreword by), Michael Lee Johnson (Introduction by), Soodabeh Saeidnia (Author)
In this imaginative collection of poems, Soodabeh Saeidnia creates a path, a road, and a street paved by colorful leaves of delicacy and wonder falling from a Ginkgo tree. A journey through the bending of time and sliding on the space, an expedition to the odd land where she did not know their language. This is a variety pack of her poems winking on the bookcase, sweetening the mouth, and feeding the mind of readers, and establishes her as one of the creative poets of her generation.
