Maxime Abolgassemi
Maxime Abolgassemi teaches literature and general culture in preparatory classes at the Lycée Chateaubriand in Rennes. He holds a doctorate in literature (Université Paris-Sorbonne) and an agrégation in modern literature, as well as a master’s degree in theoretical physics (Université Pierre-et-Marie-Curie). His work focuses on the Surrealists’ “objective chance”, the notion of counterfiction he introduced, and democratic transparency (to which he is devoting a forthcoming book). In 2017, he published Nuit persane, a first novel that plunges the reader into Tehran in the final years before the Iranian Revolution.
