Chiya Parvizpur and Hourieh Maleki
Gabor, written by Seyed Qader Hedayati and translated by Chiya Parvizpur and Hourieh Maleki, will be published in April 2026 by Henar Press in the United States.
Henar Press is a publishing house dedicated to bringing Kurdish literature into English. Serving as the voice of Kurds in America, it seeks to share Kurdish stories with the wider world. Just as most nations and regions in America have their own cultural centers, the Kurds now have a “small Kurdistan” in the U.S. to carry out this mission.
In the near future, anyone who wishes to discover Kurdish literature will naturally look to this publisher. For years, Henar Press has worked to build strong ties with major cultural institutions in the U.S. and around the globe, developing a wide range of initiatives for Kurdish literature. Its reputation, already growing, is set to flourish even further in the years ahead.
