The Storyology of Love in Crisis: Why I Wrote Beyond Entertainment
I thank every reader who has engaged with Love in Crisis and shared their impressions. Each response, whether warm or critical, matters to me because it shows that the story has touched a thought.

“Those who do not know story remain bound to tale. Our roots lie not in blood or soil; we grow from yesterday’s tales and blossom in today’s stories.
آنها که داستان نمیدانند، در قصه میمانند. ریشههای انسان در خون و خاک نیست؛ ما با قصههای دیروز میروییم و در داستانهای امروز میشِکُفیم.” Ali Rad (علی راد) |

عشق در بحران: رمان دانشنورَوایی - سفری در فرهنگ و تاریخ:
"کتاب عشق در بحران از ابتدا تا انتها خواندنی و جذاب بود. بهعنوان یک ایرانی-کانادایی که از سن کم ایران را ترک کرده و بیشتر عمرم را در خارج از کشور گذراندهام، نکات فراوانی برای قدردانی در این کتاب یافتم. نویسنده با مهارتی ستودنی فرهنگهای شرقی و غربی "

عشق در بحران: عشق، رنج و زندگی؛ سفر یک پزشک از آمریکا به ایران و آناتولی:
"رمان عشق در بحران بهترین هدیه عمرم است که تاکنون گرفتهام. من هر کتابی که میخرم به پولی که پرداختهام فکر نمیکنم بلکه به بهایی از عمر نویسنده میاندیشم که برای آن صرف کرده است. خواندن این رمان برایم مثل دسترسی به یک گنجینه اطلاعات و زمینه خودآگاهی "

LOVE IN CRISIS by Ali Rad follows Abraham, a man shaped by war, love, and exile, as he journeys through turbulent decades—from Vietnam to the Iranian Revolution—searching for meaning, healing, and human connection. With sweeping historical detail and deep emotional resonance, the novel explores how personal and political upheaval collide in the life of one man. Thoughtful and moving, it’s a meditation on love, freedom, and the stories that carry us through crisis.
