Ketab-e-Hafteh, The eternal book
Ketab-e-Hafteh, The Eternal Book” was the subject of the fifth issue of Angah art and culture magazine. “After fifty and some years, Ketab-e-Hafte is still one of the most pleasant cultural magazines in Iran,” says Arash Tanhai in the editorial. Fateh sahba Writes in the first Article of this issue: ““In the middle of weekly low-level and hefty and serious monthly magazines, Ketabe-e-Hafte was a gem, And it was a stormy start for the history-making 1960s’ young adults and adolescents”.
Ahmad Shamloo’s most important press activity is Ketab-e-Hafte, and it’s impossible to discuss Ketab-e-Hafte without addressing Shamloo.
In his piece “Name of all Shamloo’s poetry,” Ali Amir Riahi talks about his meeting with Aida Shamloo and the ever-casting shadow of Shamloo on his wife, even after his death: “When you see her, you’ll be astounded at how careful she is to keep in his shadow. To never be seen by herselves. She is careful not to draw attention to herself because of her efforts for Ketab-e-Kooch”’.
There are many images and illustrations, such as Morteza Momayez illustrations, attached to the articles that recall the Ketab-e-Hafte and Shamloo. In the middle of the magazine, there are 20 pages of Ketab-e-Hafte covers, each with the name of the editor and the cover artist for that issue. The fifth issue of Angah Magazine was released under the editorial direction of Arash Tanhai.
