Sahar Delijani ((ペルシア語:سحر دلیجانی); born 1983) is an Iranian author. Her debut novel, Children of the Jacaranda Tree, has been published in more than 75 countries and translated into 28 languages.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Sahar Delijani Official Page Simon & Schuster )〕 == Life == Sahar Delijani was born in Evin Prison in Tehran while both her parents were detained as leftist political activists, fighting against the newly established Islamic regime. Delijani's mother spent two years and a half in prison and her father four years. Her uncle, her father's younger brother, however, was among thousands of political prisoners executed and buried in mass graves by the regime in 1988.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= The Bloody Red Summer of 1988 )〕 Delijani, her older brother and her cousin were raised by her grandparents and aunt until their parents' release. Much of this experience, inside and outside Evin Prison, serves as an inspiration for Delijani's debut novel, which spans the decades from 1983 to 2011 and the Iranian Green Movement, when young Iranians once again take to the streets, set to make their own history. In 1996, at the age of 12, Delijani and her family moved to Northern California. In 2002 she attended University of California, Berkeley, earning a BA degree in Comparative Literature. Graduating in 2006, she moved with her husband, the Italian philosopher and semiotician Massimo Leone, to Turin, Italy where she has lived ever since. She is currently working on her second novel. Twice a Pushcart nominee, Delijani's writing has appeared in several literary magazines and newspapers including ''Prick of the Spindle'',〔"(Another Birth )," ''Prick of the Spindle.''〕 ''The Battered Suitcase'',〔"( Aida in the Mirror )," ''The Battered Suitcase.''〕 ''Slice Magazine,''〔"(Children of the Jacaranda Tree )," ''Slice Magazine''.〕 ''Corriere della Sera''〔"(Teheran-Torino Seguendo il profumo della nonna )," ''Corriere della Sera'',〕 and La Nazione. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sahar Delijani」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
