このコンテンツについて
In this episode, we sit down with Daniel Nayeri, award-winning author of Everything Sad Is Untrue and The Many Assassinations of Samir, the Seller of Dreams. Born in Iran, Daniel fled with his family after a fatwa put their lives in danger, spending years in refugee camps before resettling in Oklahoma. From these experiences, he developed a unique storytelling voice that blends memory, myth, and survival.
We discuss how his childhood shaped his writing, the power of humor and laughter as a coping mechanism, and the delicate balance between fact and fiction in memoir. Daniel also shares his thoughts on book challenges and bans, the resilience storytelling fosters, and advice he would give his younger self. This conversation is a moving exploration of identity, creativity, and the transformative power of stories.
Tune in to hear:
How refugee experiences shaped Daniel’s imagination
The art of blending memory and myth in writing
Humor, pain, and laughter as tools for survival
Insights into book bans and the role of storytelling in resilience
