In December 2024, The Markaz Review featured Eve, a fantasy short story by Paranda writer Parand, translated from Dari by Abdul Bacet Khurram.
“Eve has had enough of being blamed for original sin and decides to leave Purgatory. She doesn’t go to Paris or New York but to Kabul, where she not only watches the fate of the homeless woman holding a dead baby, but becomes her,” said The Markaz Review Literary Editor Malu Halasa.
