Ali Alizadeh - Poetry In The Continental Review
Loading...
Uploaded by Metaphysics24 on Nov 4, 2007
Poet and writer Ali Alizadeh was born in 1976 in Tehran, the capital of the then Kingdom of Iran, two years before the Iranian Revolution transformed the country into an Islamic Republic. Ali's world capsized as his family immigrated to Australia from the oppressive, war-torn country.
He is the author of "Eyes in Times of War" (Salt Publishing, 2006); and, with Kenneth Avery, translations of mystical poems of a Sufi master, "Fifty Poems of Attar" (re.press, 2007). Having decided to leave Australia in search of creative emancipation and inspiration, he lived in China for two years until 2007, prior to moving to Ankara, Turkey, where he currently lives with his wife Penelope, and teaches English composition.
Ali is the reviews editor for the literary journal "Cordite", and his first novel, "The New Angel", is forthcoming in 2008 with transit lounge publishing.

Ali, beautiful poetry reading.

Don't worry. 'Elixir' was a horrible book. Ali Alizadeh is among a long list of writers (without much talent) from the Muslim World who use Islam as a springboard, draw upon its poetic reserves and then show contempt for it. This is a non-Muslim's observation by the way.

Of course, I have no problem that a character was loosly based on me in his book 'Elixer'. But it is unforgivable that he plagerised an entire paragraph of mine that I helped him write after he promised to give credit for it but for which he never did. His defence at the time? "My publisher said I should credit as few people as neccessary"
