Beschreibung

Siavash, an Iranian poet and researcher living in Finland, drifts between two realities - one anchored in loneliness, migration, and fragmented memories, and another in which he mysteriously has a wife, Shahrzad, and a daughter, Negah. His flights between Finland and Iran propel him into uncertain futures and forgotten pasts. Conversations with his mother and friends, encounters through a dating app, and reflections in a digital-storytelling workshop expose a fractured identity. Borrowing from astronomy the idea that light shifts red as things move apart and blue as they draw near, this novella explores themes of memory, time, immigration, and the liminal space between fantasy and reality - questioning how a life can be both lived and not lived at once.

Über den Autor

Mani Momeni was born in 1977 in Tonekabon, Iran, a city located between the Caspian Sea and the Alborz Mountains. He is a poet, translator, and researcher who has published two poetry collections - Bright Nights and Lost Text Messages - and translated three novels into Farsi, including Tove Jansson's The Summer Book. Some of his poems have also been published in the volume Toward Finnish Heterolinational Literatures: Challenges and Opportunities. He moved to Finland in 2016 and is now a doctoral researcher at the University of Turku, where he investigates literature education and reader engagement. His writing explores impossible loves, absent presences, time travel, and the spaces between languages and cultures. He is a poet-author, meaning that he tells stories through poetic language. He believes that a city without a poet is in a bad mood. The Life That Is Not Happening is his debut novella.
