	Biography

My research project deals with Iranian women's exilic memoirs and the autobiographies and fiction of Doris Lessing and Janet Frame, considered within their contexts of production and in relation to authorship and authority.

I am completing a PhD thesis that is a comparative study of female subjectivity and authorship in the autobiographical works of some contemporary Western and Middle Eastern Women writers.
