Khosrow Shirin Farhad
Khosrow, Shirin, Farhad is a modern visual retelling of one of Persian literature’s greatest masterpieces, originally composed by Nezami Ganjavi in the 12th century. This tragic love triangle between the Sasanian king Khosrow Parviz, the Armenian princess Shirin, and the gifted sculptor Farhad is brought to life in twelve illustrated scenes.
The artwork, created in pencil and later digitized with text, departs from traditional Persian miniature styles to present realistic, cinematic characters and settings. Costumes, objects, and environments are carefully researched from historical sources and museum collections. The result is a hybrid form—part narrative, part illustration—that resembles comics in structure yet retains the depth and gravity of classical storytelling.…Khosrow, Shirin, Farhad is a modern visual retelling of one of Persian literature’s greatest masterpieces, originally composed by Nezami Ganjavi in the 12th century.

I already have four completed books ready for publication. Writing and visual storytelling are long-term commitments for me, and I do see them as part of a professional path, both creatively and economically.
Beyond publishing, these works also open doors to broader activities such as lectures, exhibitions, workshops, and cultural collaborations. My goal is not only to bring these stories to international audiences but also to build a sustainable creative career that bridges Iranian heritage with contemporary art and storytelling.
Target Market
This book appeals to readers who are interested in:
World literature and mythology – especially those fascinated by Persian classics such as Nezami’s works.
Art and illustration enthusiasts – who appreciate graphic storytelling, visual adaptations, and cross-cultural art forms.
Academics and students in Middle Eastern studies, literature, and art history.
General readers of illustrated books and graphic narratives who enjoy hybrid formats that combine text and image.
Diaspora communities and second-generation Iranians seeking accessible retellings of cultural heritage.
The book bridges traditional narratives and contemporary visual storytelling, making it attractive both for a niche academic/art market and for a wider international audience interested in diverse voices and timeless stories.…Khosrow, Shirin, Farhad is a modern visual retelling of one of Persian literature’s greatest masterpieces, originally composed by Nezami Ganjavi in the 12th century.
