Az Havā tā Mahsā: Hamrāh bā Sheyṭān va Khodā Persian 2025

The poetic cycle **“The Secret of Eve to Mahsa”** is a philosophical and lyrical journey that guides the reader from the heart of the myth of creation to the very core of the turbulent realities of the contemporary world.
Written in a symbolic style rooted in classical Persian language, this narrative poem explores, through a multi-layered approach, concepts such as creation, sin, freedom, destiny, and the historical position of women. From Eve’s first moments in the Garden of Eden to the modern era, the work builds a bridge between myth and lived reality, inviting the reader to reflect on the nature of humanity and society.
Among its central themes are the critique of superstition, the brilliance of humankind, the contradictions of the human mind, and ultimately the experience of the human race itself—along with the bondage and violence born of the ego, the oppression inflicted throughout history, and the deep, undeniable social wounds of the present age.
One of the major axes of this work is its examination of the **cycle of violence in human history**, beginning with the first murder—Cain and Abel. This event is presented as the starting point of an unending chain of bloodshed, a pattern that has persisted throughout the ages, driving countless “brothers” to destroy one another and shaping innumerable tragedies.
With a tone that is simultaneously critical, poetic, humorous, at times ironic, and at times blunt, the poem reminds the reader that history is a repetition of suffering and resistance—and that **women have played a singular role in this enduring struggle**.
The book concludes with a short verse play titled **“The Devil and God.”**
In this dramatic dialogue, a poetic and philosophical exchange unfolds between God and Satan—two ancient forces—who describe the human condition caught between free will and fate, raising profound questions about the nature of human agency and freedom.
