Martyr! by Kaveh Akbar - National Book Award Nominee - 9780593685778 - Buku Original Periplus

“Kaveh Akbar is one of my favorite writers. Ever.” —Tommy Orange, Pulitzer Prize–nominated author of There There
“The best novel you'll ever read about the joy of language, addiction, displacement, martyrdom, belonging, homesickness.” —Lauren Groff, best-selling author of Matrix and Fates and Furies
Cyrus Shams is a young man grappling with an inheritance of violence and loss: his mother’s plane was shot down over the skies of the Persian Gulf in a senseless accident; and his father’s life in America was circumscribed by his work killing chickens at a factory farm in the Midwest. Cyrus is a drunk, an addict, and a poet, whose obsession with martyrs leads him to examine the mysteries of his past—toward an uncle who rode through Iranian battlefields dressed as the angel of death to inspire and comfort the dying, and toward his mother, through a painting discovered in a Brooklyn art gallery that suggests she may not have been who or what she seemed.
Kaveh Akbar’s Martyr! is a paean to how we spend our lives seeking meaning—in faith, art, ourselves, others.


Martyr! is a captivating story of Cyrus Shams, an Iranian-American poet navigating addiction, loss, and family secrets. Guided by the voices of martyrs and artists, his journey uncovers a profound connection to his mother through a painting at the Brooklyn Museum. This emotionally charged novel explores identity, belonging, and the relentless search for meaning in life.

This is Martyr!, a hauntingly beautiful exploration of identity, loss, and the transformative power of art and poetry in the search for meaning.
