She took up residence in northern Virginia 45 years ago, after passing a Board of Internal Medicine examination for practice in America. In 2002, Dr. Alavi began painting as a hobby. Her subjects most often dealt with Kurdish women dressed in their traditionally colorful garments. However, writing has come easier. Her first five Persian novels, <em>The Empty Balloon, Mirage of Freedom, </em> <em>Broken Mast, Two Straw, </em> and <em>Dandelion</em> are widely popular in Iran. <em>Dandelions and Roses - A Contemporary Persian Romance</em> is the English translation of <em>Dandelion.</em> A translation of the autobiographic <em>Two Straw</em> is planned for release soon.</p><p> </p>
