Ali Abdolrezaei Biography

Ali Abdolrezaei (علی عبدالرضایی ) was born 10 April 1969 in Northern Iran (Langrood) where he finished high school and graduated in Mechanical Engineering from Khaje Nasir University, Tehran.

Abdolrezaei began his poetic career in 1986. Eventually, he was banned from teaching and public speaking. In 1997, with the start of the new presidency and the decrease of censorship, Abdolrezaei’s new book, “Paris in Renault”, was published in Iran. It received massive attention and the majority of the critics, newspapers and important literary circles wrote and talked about its new view on language and especially on postmodernism. This made Abdolrezaei more famous and his open-minded ideas became influential for the Persian audience, which caused him a more severe surveillance from the government. He was invited to hold lectures about poetry in many places, but he only accepted those held in the universities, that’s why he was called “University’s Poet”. Getting in touch with these large audiences was considered dangerous by the government, so they soon forbade him from public speaking and started to censor his books more than before.

Abdolrezaei’s reputation as a poet spread in the early 1990s and received wide critical discussion from poets and critics of Persian poetry. His poetry tackles difficult themes with a mastery of craft. According to Poetry International, his “postmodern” poems “center on the problematic nature of language, knowledge and subjectivity.”

After studying anarchism for several years, starting in the year 2000, Abdolrezaei published essays about it on the internet, bringing a broader view on the phenomenon for his Persian readers and speaking about it at underground events. He created a new concept, “Iranarchism” – which focused on many issues of the Middle East societies, according to the anarchist approach. He published the manifest of Iranarchism, in seven parts, first as a text, on the Iranian website Akhbare-rooz, in 2013, and then on YouTube as an audio presentation. In early 2016 he published his book “آنارشیست ها واقعی ترند” [Anarchists are More Realistic], a selection of more than 400 pages from his writings on this topic.

Abdolrezaei is a poet, writer and literary with 69 books. Before 2001, when he leaves Iran, he was one of the innovative poets of the Persian poetry. He has since been prolific and although he started to write in Persian with his Short and little like iran, Persian poetry and fiction remain the mainstay of his work.

He represents the aesthetics and voice of a new, multi-faceted generation of Iranians and their cultural chasm with the past in the face of a repressive political regime.
