Early Life and Occupation
[edit]
Farhad Heydari Guran (March 1, 1974; Kurdish: فهرهاد حهیدهری گوران, Persian: فرهاد حیدری گوران) is an Iranian-Kurdish writer and researcher. He is known for his works that blend Kurdish oral traditions with modern narrative techniques.
Farhad HGuran is a Kurdish-Iranian writer whose works address social, cultural, and political themes. His writings often explore mystical and ritual motifs, some of which are connected to Yarsan (Ahl-e Haqq) texts, a minority religious and cultural tradition among Kurds in western Iran. Themes in his works include the search for truth, love, and spirituality, as well as critiques of social and historical experiences, including discrimination, war, and migration.
- Short of breath’ (2008, Agah Publishing) – The first volume of a trilogy reflecting socio-political oppression experienced by the Kurdish people.
- Departure of Shamar (2018, Agah Publishing / selected as Honored Book of the Mehrgan Award 2019) – Explores migration and social critique.
- We All Live in the Age of Hunting (2021), Nogam Publishing, London) – A short story collection, translated into Kurdish, English, Polish, Swedish, and Arabic.
- Maria Minorski’s Darkroom (2004, online) – Recognized as the first HyperText Fiction novel in Persian.

Three of Guran’s novels remain unpublished in Iran due to censorship.
