Persian prince: actor and antiquarian in a book

Besides being two Iranians who have lived in Italy for more than thirty years, what can bind two men of different generations and with seemingly incompatible life experiences?

The first is a famous porn actor of the seventies and eighties, now forgotten and known as "Persian prince”, the second is a well-known antique dealer with a passion for collecting.

Succubus and prisoner of his immeasurable member, the Prince is also freed from it, since that phallus makes it known in every environment and attests to its uniqueness.

Slavery mixes with ransom, in a fascinating contrast, in the new novel by the Iranian-born writer Maziar Yaghmai Persian Prince, published by goWare. And against the backdrop of the Shah's Iran and the Rome of the XNUMXs, the refined eroticism of the protagonist evokes the magic and the tale of the Arabian Nights.

Maziar Yaghmai, has been living in Italy for over thirty years. He is Iranian, but he loves to write in Italian: an arduous job since it is not his mother tongue. His first novel, A Persian, Rome and the River (Gangemi editore), dates from 2012.
