Nasim has shared her poems and art at events, poetry slams, workshops and protests globally.\u003ci\u003e 'what was swept under the persian rug'\u003c\/i\u003e is a collection of pieces surrounding the topics of identity, the politics of individuals and the world, mental wellness, family history and trauma, the upbringings of a young immigrant Iranian girl growing up in places she is not accepted and away from family. The book tells inquisitive stories and healing simultaneously- carrying a sense of comfort and acceptance even within the rebellion. The book has a life of its own, as the chapters are named after the rug process- the illustrations are the strings from the rug that carries through. It dissects backwards the complex subjects and ideas that are swept away and expected never to be revealed. This is them in revelation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jamila Allidina,Nasim Asgari\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1999468112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781999468118\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nasim Asgari\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/31\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.48d","brand":"Jamila Allidina","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486732562687,"sku":"9781999468118","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_82c072dd-3eec-4d06-a7bb-64e444c31ccd.jpg?v=1778056492","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/what-was-swept-under-the-jamila-allidina-9781999468118","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
