Reza Khoshbin-e Khoshnazar (Persian: رضا خوشبين خوشنظر) is an Iranian novelist who published his first novel, The Gods Laugh on Mondays in 1995 when he was in his twenties.[1] The reaction was hot and some conservative papers accused him of writing blasphemy[2][3] and some zealots compared him with Salman Rushdie.[4] Eventually, men came in the night and torched his publisher book shop, Morghe-Amin Publication House, in Tehran.[5][6][1][7]
Author Khoshnazar has published six other novels in Sweden with Ferdosi Publication House entitled: The Prophet with the Head like a Squash in the Shadow of Dead Clock (Persian: پيغمبر كلّه كدو زير ساعت مرده),[8][9] The End of Owl (Persian: آخر جغد),[10][11] Tetraktus, the Damn Four (Persian: تتراكتوس، چهار لعنتي),[12][13] Squint eyed and eyes of crows (Persian: لوچ ها و چشم آغول ها), Nebraska Syndrome (Persian: سندروم نبراسکا),[14] and My red ass baboons (Persian: انتران کون سرخ من).
