Encyclopedic overview
Samad Behrangi (Persian: صمد بهرنگی; 24 June 1939 – 31 August 1968) was a Marxist-Leninist Iranian teacher, social activist and critic, folklorist, translator, and short story writer of Iranian Azerbaijani descent. He is famous for his children's books, particularly The Little Black Fish. Influenced by predominantly leftist and communist ideologies that were common among the intelligentsia of his era, which made him popular among the Organization of Iranian People's Fedai Guerrillas (an Iranian communist organization), his books typically portrayed the lives of the children of the urban poor and encouraged the individual to change their circumstances by their own initiatives.
