Abbas Kiarostami is mostly known for his poetic cinema, but he was also a published poet, with his poetry translated into different languages. Besides his own poetry, he also releases his selection from several masters of Persian poetry such as Hafez, Saadi, and Rumi, with a fresh and different look at their poems. While his books, including his poetry books, are listed in the Books section, we will periodically publish some of his poetry in this page.
We will publish some of his poetry here in the near future.
