"""Written against the backdrop of decades of political hostility between Iran and the US, this study breaks new ground by highlighting convergences of views between American and Iranian writers. In the rich cultural arena Naghmeh Esmaeilpour offers her readers, the seemingly insurmountable divides between the two nations are bridged and overcome."" Nasrin Rahimieh, University of California, Irvine, United States ""Naghmeh Esmaeilpour presents a great scholarly feat here and a true celebration of comparative literature in its finest form. This is a unique incitement for cultural dialogue and understanding between Iran and the United States."" Arshin Adib-Moghaddam, SOAS University of London, United Kingdom ""This book focuses on an astonishing topic with astonishing results: the peculiar mixture of love and hate between Iranian and American literatures."" Joseph Vogl, Professor of Modern German Literature, Cultural and Media Studies, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Germany"
