Because it has yet to be written; would you like to try? Biruitorul 04:36, 30 September 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Third or fourth child?

I just consulted a résumé of Forough Farrokhzad (now linked to the article) in which it is stated that Forough has been the fourth child of the familiy rather than, what is stated in the present article, the third child. Perhaps someone should investigate and find out which one of these two, if any, is correct.

Further to the above question, in the same résumé it is mentioned that "When she was 32 years old she attemted suicide"; since 1935+32=1967, the year of Forough's death, it appears that this suicide attempt must have taken place shortly before Forough's car accident (one should of course take into account the inherent ambiguity about ages, not least because of the problem arising from conversion of dates). Again, it seems appropriate that someone should find out about the actual date and mention this suicide attempt in the biography (the present text of the biography is conspicuously silent about the suicide attempt).
