Géopoèmes / Geopoems is a bilingual poetry collection by Sahar Dehkordi, illustrated by Parham Ghalamdar and translated into French by Samantha Barendson. Published by Le Chat polaire in 2026, the book brings poetry and image together across Persian, French and English-speaking contexts.
Ghalamdar’s illustrations extend the collection’s movement between language, place and the felt experience of geography. The book’s title suggests a meeting of poem and territory: a way of approaching landscape through voice, translation and image.
