Fatema Roshan

Fatema Roshan, a thirty-two-year-old Afghan writer and poet, resides in Kabul, Afghanistan. With a background in Natural Resources, she now works in the field, but her passion lies in reading and writing literature. Fatema changed her writing style after several years, when she realized she was not addressing inner concerns. In 2016, she published a collection of short stories, titled Fierce Anger or Anger of the Wilderness, in collaboration with the Kabul Information Center. The Kinowa Perfume is the only collection that includes her new poems. According to critics, she is a promising and unique author from her generation. She has been a successful writer and will continue to grow as she explores different styles of poetry.
