By Chia Parvizpur

The Smell of Wet Bricks is a pioneering short novel in English by a Kurdish author. "The smell of wet bricks" is a fresh voice from a region marked by violence and wars over a century. An author from Kurdistan in Iran, Parvizpur "craves to become the voice of a rich repository of powerful stories." Chia Parvizpur is a 29-year-old Kurdish author born in Sanandaj, the Kurdistan of Iran. He plays Tamura and teaches English for a living. Having studied English Literature with the intention of writing creative works of fiction in English, he opts for reviving his folk culture, myth, and history. In this way, he desires to unearth erstwhile pangs that would otherwise remain veiled and repressed in the labyrinths of time and place.
