Simin Daneshvar is the best novel writer in Iran. Although Iran has had the privilage of having some of the greatest writers of the 20th century such as Hedayat, Fasih, Dolat Abadi, and Daneshvar's own husband, Al Ahmad, Simin Daneshvar alone stands on the peak of the 20th century Iran's writers. Suvashun, which has the record for best selling novel in Iran, is a book that masterfully combines the western format of novel with Iranian elements. It has full and well described characters. Everyone who reads this book can easily relate to Zari, Yousef, Amme Khanoom and all other characters. The book is a wanderful reading and probably the best introduction to Iran's rich modern literature, long over looked by the world. I rank Simin Daneshvar as one of 10 best Twentieth century writers.

Simin Daneshvar's second collection of short stories which was published in iran under the title of "Be Ki Salaam Konam." A great book, wonderful to read. Along with Jalal Al Ahmad's "Se Tar", Sadegh Hedayat's "Sag-e Velgard", and of course Jamal Zadeh's "Yeki Bood, Yeki Nabood", one of the finest collection of Persian short stories by the best fiction writer of the modern Persian literature, Ostad Simin Daneshvar.
