Acting roles in The bitter taste of persimmon by Zoya Pirzad

In all narrative texts, a lack reveals itself as the start of the action; the continuation would be an effort to liquidate that lack. This continuation in which the initial stat transforms itself to a second one, is the narrative procedure which could not have any sense without the presence of the actors, i.e. the ones to which a role is attributed, including objects.
