Jane Austen Hits Iranian Book Shelves

This is an interesting news item contributed by Raquel Sallaberry from Jane Austen em Portugues:
The Persian translated biography of "Jane Austen" a work by Brian Southam has been marketed by Mahi in Iran. The book is penned by the ex-manager of Jane Austen Society who spent his life on researching the British author's life.

The book's translator Goli Emami has rendered other books including "Girl with a Peal Earring" by Tracy Chevalier, "Unaccustomed earth" by Jhumpa Lahiri and "‎The bell jar" by Sylvia ‎Plath.

The Persian translated biography of "Jane Austen" a work by Brian Southam has been marketed by Mahi in Iran in 112 pages.

It is a fact universally acknowledged that Jane Austen's great novels have penetrated every continent on this earth. Iran is one of the many, many countries to jump on board the Jane bandwagon.
