 Hi everybody, my name is Daniel Neyari. I am the author of Everything Sad is Untrue a True Story. It's the autobiographical novel that begins with a young man in his classroom in the sixth grade in Edmond, Oklahoma trying to explain what his life was like before they were refugees to the United States, before they lived in refugee camps all over the world, before his mother was captured by the secret police, before they had to escape Iran. And he tells the story of generations back in his family in Iran. He tells the myths and the poems of his culture. He tells about his father who he sees as this great man of mystery and poetry. Well, of course the kids in his class don't believe a word that he says. And so he continues to insist and tells more and more fantastical stories until one day he hears that the worlds of his stories and his imagination in Iran are going to collide with the world of reality in the United States because his father is coming to visit. Will he be the man of poetry that he imagined or will he be just a regular old guy? Well, you'll have to read it to find out. Thank you very much. See you next time. Cheers.
