Song of a Captive Bird by Jasmin Darznik

Iranian poet Forugh Farrokhzad grew up in a time when women were expected to be silent. Yet, instead of staying quiet, she rebelled against both society and her family to publish her written work.

Inspired by her never-ending bravery, Jasmin Darznik draws from her poetry, letters, films, and interviews to deliver a powerful, fictionalized portrayal of the influence Farrokhzad left behind in Song of a Captive Bird.
