Now

After the unveiling of the book “Now” held at Arasbaran Cultural Center, the reception to this book exceeded expectations, so much so that seven days after the publication of this poetry collection, its seventh edition was released to the book market. “Now,” as the sixth poetry collection by Fazel Nazari, includes 40 ghazals with romantic and mystical themes. It was published as the poet approached the age of 40 and carries a mood similar to his previous poetry collections, “The Emperor’s Tears” and “Anti.” In one of the ghazals in this poetry collection, we read: “You are comfort to my soul and I am your worry Whose fault is it that I am with you while you are with others? If the price of paradise is not having you, Then paradise without you is hell. Seeking you, I stared into people’s eyes, And all passersby were strangers to me. How can I conceal you from the eyes of rivals? There are so many thieves among these fellow travelers. How strange love is that everyone has a different telling of it, Of this volcanic eruption in its outburst. Be silent, for prophets do not share The secrets of revelatory experience with others.”
