Mahasti Shahrokhi

Mahasti Shahrokhi (Persian: مهستی شاهرخی) is an Iranian novelist, poet, and winner of numerous literary prizes. Her novel, A Shawl as Long as the Silk Road (Baran Publication, Sweden, 1999) attracted critical attention, and Cactus magazine (published in the U.S.) devoted its third publication to this novel.
