Iran: A Winter Journey

I translated an essay and some poems by several Finnish authors who participated in the Caravan Project, which brought European, American, Indian and Iranian authors and artists together on a tour of Iran. Now all of the work has been compiled in a beautiful book called Iran: A Winter Journey. The book is filled with impressionistic writing about Iran, including some lovely poetry, and lots and lots of interesting pictures of ordinary people and places in Iran.

Here are some photos from the trip by Hanns Otte:

More photos from the project are online at the Caravan diary pages and the Yazd photo essay pages.
