Three New Collections of Poetry Published by the University of Arkansas Press 

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. - An Iranian woman poet, a southerner, and a midwestener are represented in three new poetry collections published by the University of Arkansas Press. 
?
For the first time, the work of Iranian poet Forough Farrokhzad is being brought to English-speaking readers through the perspective of a translator who is a poet in her own right, fluent in both Persian and English, and intimately familiar with each culture. Sin: Selected Poems of Forugh Farrokhzad, translated by Sholeh Wolpe (cloth, $22.95) includes the entirety of Farrokhzad's last book and selections from her earlier work.
