Jila Mossaed
A member of the Nobel Academy of Literature and a poet of Iranian origin, exiled in Sweden since the tightening of censorship under Khomeini, Jila Mossaed is, for the first time, the subject of a publication in French. Her poetry collection, "Vad Jag saknades här," is her first title to be published in French by Editions Hashtag under the title "Le cœur demeure dans le berceau" in 2019, rewarded with the Venus Khoury-Ghata Poetry Prize.
