Sholeh Wolpé writes, “Farrokhzad is homeland’s most revered female poet. She was a poet of great audacity and extraordinary talent. Her poetry was the poetry of protest– protest through revelation– the revelation of the innermost world of women (considered taboo until then), their intimate secrets and desires, their sorrows, longings, aspirations and at times even their articulation through silence. Her poems are still relevant in their advocacy for women’s liberation and independence.”
