Banafsheh Serov will be the guest speaker at Panania Library on Tuesday, April 29th, 2014.
A longtime bookseller, Banafsheh is one of the owner/operators at Your Bookshop. Her memoir, Under A Starless Sky depicts her family's journey from the beginnings of Iran's revolution to their escape to Turkey and ultimately, Australia. Her debut novel The Russian Tapestry, is based on her husband's grandparents who similarly fled a totalitarian regime to make a new home in Australia.
Join us and Banafsheh on a fascinating talk on fleeing Iran and the research behind her writing.

About Me
- Banafsheh Serov
- I am passionate about the written language. I love writing, reading, reviewing, selling and promoting books. I am an independent bookseller with over 20 years of experience in the book trade. Together with my partners, I actively aim to improve our bookstore's range and services to better reflect the needs of our community and clientele. In 2008, my memoir 'Under A Starless Sky' was published by Hachette, Australia. Since then, I had a short story 'Jasmine Petals' published in 'Stories of Belonging' (Finch) and in 2013, released my first full-length novel, The Russian Tapestry, also by Hachette. I am currently writing my second novel. I strive daily to improve my skills and stretch the limits of my craft. My love of books has naturally lead to reviewing.
