Affected by war and revolution herself, and through extensive travel, Pasha Parvaneh Hashemi has come across many people escaping from oppressive, tyrant
rulers. These ordinary people - with extraordinary horror stories of their lives under autocratic regimes and their brave escape from their motherland in
search of freedom and peace - inspired the author to gather their true tales into this book, Who Knows Where Butterflies Die; which is written as an
allegory to protect the identity of its characters.
Pasha Parvaneh Hashemi holds a Ph.D. in Information Technology Education and Literature; a Post Master’s degree in Pedagogy Education; as well as degrees
in Fine Arts and Graphic and Communications Design.
She is the founder and chair of a non-profit literature club in British Columbia, Canada that promotes language, creative writing and artistry. This
multicultural association has become very popular with published authors and famous artists from across Canada and overseas, receiving appreciation awards
from universities and prominent figures.
She has also received awards from a variety of universities and associations for her extraordinary dedication and contribution to education, literature,
and artistry. A visual artist, she has had numerous art exhibitions across Canada with good reviews. She has designed the cover of this book too. Her
writing and illustrations have been published in local newspapers and magazines. Two of her poems have received recognition from the Library of Congress of
America and are published in their official books: The Path Not Taken and The Best of the 90s.
She is fluent in several languages but has chosen to write Who Knows Where Butterflies Die in English; which is her third. This book has also been
translated and released in Persian. She is a translator and a college professor in British Columbia, Canada, where she resides with her family.
Who Knows Where Butterflies Die is available in print in major bookstores in North America and in downloadable digital in English and Persian online all
over the world. It will soon be available in Spanish and audio.
