There are some similarities between the fictional character, Majid, and Kermani. For example, Majid is an orphan, while in real life, Kermani lost his mother when he was young. Additionally, Majid and Kermani do not have any siblings and lived in poverty while growing up. It was in this state of solitude and loneliness that Kermani began to write. (en)
