Extra Leaf

Extra Page encompasses “Notes from East to West” written by Mansour Zabetian, where he has gathered the unshared memories of his previous travels. Mansour Zabetian has managed to link his name with travel and travelogues and, through his passion and love for traveling, create a bridge between himself and his readers. “Extra Page” is another fascinating and enjoyable work by this travel-loving writer, presented in the form of a travelogue for enthusiasts of this genre of literature. However, the writer has stated that unlike his other works, “Extra Page” doesn’t necessarily provide information that familiarizes the reader with the countries in question. “Extra Page” is more about the memoirs of a traveler who has documented his captivating phenomena and sweet and bitter experiences with indescribable enthusiasm, sharing certain points with his audience that might not be found in every travelogue. The memories are short and delightful, and Mansour Zabetian occasionally expresses his critical perspectives and stance on particular events. He also discusses aspects of his international travels, providing intriguing and specific details about the destinations he has visited, alongside insights into the cultural, economic, and livelihood conditions of the local people. Like his other works, “Extra Page” also contains a lively and humorous tone, ensuring it does not bore the reader. Usually, each memory is accompanied by relevant images and pictures, which enhances the appeal of this creative work.
