Tahereh Eybod[1] (Persian: طاهره ایبد) (born 23 September 1963) is an Iranian author, researcher, critic, and journalist, known for her children's literature. Tahereh Eybod, an author of children and young adults, was born in Shiraz (Fars Province). Eybod has published more than 150 books for all age groups; babies and toddlers, preschoolers, children, young adults, and adults.[2] These works include picture books, short stories, serial stories, and novels in various genres consisting of realism, humor, horror, fantasy, magic realism, etc. Many academic theses and reviews have been written on Eybod's works, especially about features of her young adults novel Liasandmaris Fairies: `The analysis of archetypes in literary texts is actually removing the apparent layer of each text so as to reach the deep structure and the second and invisible layer of that work. Affected by her unconsciousness, Tahereh Eybod has consciously and evidently applied the archetypical symbols in the Fairies of Liasendmaris. That is why the novel has not been artificial.[3]

Overview of works

[edit]

Eybod’s works contain various themes including war, peace, friendship, family, environment, life, and death, the nature of the "self" etc. Fictional works for youth adults, short stories for children, and works with a prominent humorous situation and tone, all are seen in her repertoire such as in The Family of Mr. Charkhashi book, which has been selected in the White Ravens's list of the International Youth Library[4] in 2005, and it was awarded the Parvin Etesami Award.[5] Her Liasandmaris Fairies novel is the native Iranian novel written in the style of magical realism: 'Some consider this novel to be the first and only fantasy novel in the field of children's and young adults literature in our country (Iran), which is in the category of magical realist stories.[6] This novel was the specific selection of the "Shahid Shahi" Book Festival,[7] and it also received a wooden statue of the "Charcoal Mermaid

Statue of `Charcoal Mermaid` for the novel `Fairies of Liasandmaris`

[8]", (one of the main characters in the novel), from the Kermanshah province Center for the Intellectual Development of Child and youth adults. The geography of this novel is the port of `Siraf`, which was the sea origin of the Silk Road. The choice of this place instead of the rest of the places in south Iran is closely related to the culture and beliefs of the people of southern Iran and the plot of the novel. Furthermore, her adult novel, Dowr Gardun, is in the same style Which has received the Book of the Year of Sustainability Literature award[9] from the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance. The themes of her works include the constant issues and concerns of human beings, social issues, discrimination, and gender stereotypes, questioning, logical thinking, critique of adult behavior towards children: '...the story of Bandenaf by Tahereh Eybod (2005) sarcastically criticize(s) the behavior of adults toward children[10]` as well as the needs and desires of today's children and adolescents: 'Eybod should be considered a writer with different themes and themes'.[11] Eybod seeks new experiences in form and narrative. Eybod's deconstruction of the narrative is seen in many of his works, such as "The Big Wolf and the Fat Fish" and `The Strange and Exotics Under the Sea`, as Mohammad Hadi Mohammadi says of the book: 'In this narrative, we have no character.[12] The children are present as observers.[13]

From childhood to for children

[edit]

Tahereh Eybod was born to a family with nine children, five sons, and four daughters. She was the sixth child and the youngest daughter in the family. Her father was a truck driver and unemployed most of the time. In such a situation, having a book was impossible for her. She was not allowed to go to the library and only read scrapped books and magazines that would find in the trash. She never thought about becoming a writer until twelve, but she loved listening to stories and storytelling for her little brothers. When Eybod went to the second grade of elementary school (age 8), a 200-page notebook was gifted by her teacher. Eybod dedicated it as her fiction and poetry notebook. When she lost her father at the age of 11, their living conditions became more difficult. After that, she sought more refuge in the fictional universe to cope with the harsh reality of life. At the age of 12, her English teacher held a poetry and story contest in the school, and she won the first literary award; it was for two volumes of storybooks. On that day her English teacher articulated a sentence to Eybod:'you can become a writer. When she sent an article to Courier Magazine (a magazine for students) and saw Tahereh Eybod's name in the magazine, believed her words. she was hired as an instructor at the "Institute for the Intellectual Development of Children and Young Adults” after graduating from high school (age 18). Then she and participated in Naser Irani's story writing workshop (1982), and with the publication of her first book, "Saleh", by that institute, her career began in children's and young adult literature at age 21. She moved to Tehran in 1985 after her marriage and graduated with a bachelor's degree in English language teaching.
