Maryam Nemati (1909-1998)


Maryam was the youngest daughter of Hadj Nemat. Like her sister Malak Jan, she too lost her sight at a young age and remained in her father’s home in Jeyhounabad throughout her life. She followed her father's spiritual ways and mostly led her life in the same manner as her ancestors. She was quite fluent in Kurdish poetry and often expressed her spiritual states in verse; a book of her poems remains.
