Tahereh Mafi

Format

Tahereh Mafi, born on November 10, 1988, in Connecticut, is a celebrated American author renowned for her captivating young adult fiction. As the youngest of five siblings in an Iranian immigrant family, Mafi's rich cultural background and experiences living in various parts of the United States have deeply influenced her storytelling. A graduate of Soka University of America, Mafi is not only an accomplished writer but also a polyglot proficient in eight languages, a skill she further honed during a semester in Barcelona, Spain. Her journey into the literary world, marked by perseverance, involved penning five manuscripts before her breakthrough novel, "Shatter Me," was published in 2011.

Mafi's "Shatter Me" series, beginning with her debut novel, has grown into a phenomenon, capturing the hearts of readers worldwide and even catching the eye of 20th Century Fox for film adaptation. Beyond the dystopian allure of "Shatter Me," Mafi has explored vibrant, magical worlds in her middle-grade novel "Furthermore." She also tackled complex themes in "A Very Large Expanse of Sea," earning a longlist nomination for the 2018 National Book Award for Young People's Literature. Residing in Irvine, California, with her husband, author Ransom Riggs, and their daughter, Mafi continues to enchant and inspire through her expansive and diverse body of work, which now includes the eagerly anticipated "This Woven Kingdom" series.
