Biography
Mostapha Samady is driven by social and political concerns, e.g., the experience of war in Afghanistan, as well as linguistic preoccupations, which are illustrated by the way Samady ends the poem "The World", which is mainly concerned with global inequality.
Mostafa Samadi was born in Herat, Afghanistan.  He graduated in micro-economics from Herat University, and is currently doing his master's degree in the same subject in Germany. Samadi's poetry collection Between Distance and Hell  was published in 2015. He has been active in the Persian Poetry College, organising workshops on poetry and criticism, radio production and management of different sections at the College.
