The Fatal Despair of Exile: An Iran they could neither Live in nor Leave Behind

Ebrahimi Nabavi was an Iranian satirist. On January 15, 2025, he took his life at the age of sixty four in Silver Spring, Md.

He never felt at home, whether in Brussels or in the vicinity of Washington, D.C. He always wanted to go back to Iran. He was one of the reformists who took on the mantle to criticize the Islamic Republic.

He was imprisoned. He shared the same block with other famous prisoners.
