	Samad Behrangi
		Samad Behrangi was born into a lower-class Azerbaijani family in the southern division of Charandab, Tabriz, the commercial and administrative capital of Azerbaijan Province, in July 1939.
		Behrangi grew critical early on in his career as a teacher of both the methodology and contents of the state-sponsored textbooks.
		Behrangi found fault with this methodology and thus detailed a proposal for teaching Persian to Azeri Turkish speakers that acknowledged the linguistic differences of the two languages and built on the students’ knowledge of vocabulary that was common to both Azeri Turkish and Persian alike.

	Samad Behrangi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Samad Behrangi (صمد بهرنگی) (July?, 1939 – 1967) was an Azeri Iranian socialist and writer.
		Behrangi also has stories in the Azerbaijani language and a few Azerbaijani translations from Persian poems by Ahmad Shamlou, Forough Farrokhzad, and Mehdi Akhavan-Sales.
		Behrangi's works for children and teens contain social themes of poverty and injustice, often with vague socialist or communist undertones, and are considered among the prominant works written for children in the Persian language in terms of structure and emotional impact.

		Samad Behrangi was a writer who used children’s stories as a way of expressing his feelings about the wrongs of society during the rule of the last Shah of Iran.
		Behrangi, in his travels, had observed the uneven distribution of wealth in the villages and in the cities of Azerbaijan, which is a comparatively prosperous province of Iran.

		Behrangi's stories were banned by the monarchy's censorship in the early seventies.
		Samad was a freethinker and as such will always pose a threat to the establishment, be it the Shah's monarchy or the mullahs of the Islamic Republic.
		Although Behrangi's work covers issues ranging from education, on which he was a qualified expert being a teacher in the villages of the province of Azarbaijan, to various literary and social topics, it is his children's stories that made him most famous and brought the wrath of the powers to be upon him.

	Book Review: "The Little Black Fish and Other Modern Persian Short Stories"
		For Behrangi, this belief turned his tragically short life into a mission to educate and enlighten.
		There, just when the journey's end is in sight, and a home can be found with a band who defeat the fishermen by swimming together and dragging down their nets, the fish tempts fate once too often and goes down in a last desperate struggle.
		But courage and the search for knowledge are their own reward, as we see in the last few lines, when the grandmother has finished her bed-time story: "Eleven thousand nine hundred and ninety nine little fish said goodnight and went to sleep.

		It needs the least attention and water of all fruits, and is likened to those natural geniuses (or genii) who produce immortal works of art having received the least possible cultivation or training.
		An excellent case in point is Samad Behrangi, writer of children's books, who was drowned before he was 30: that was in 1968, and the circumstances are mysterious, possibly connected with the repression of dissenting intellectuals by the security forces of the late Shah.
		The memory of Fatima and myself as children naturally brings back to me Samad's wonderful stories for children, because he was so near to children himself.
