  Contemporary Iranian fiction manifests itself in the southwestern part of the country, Khuzestan, in a distinct way. Writers of this region are distinguished from others in terms of style on the strength of a cultural diversity and special geography and some scholars term this style ‘Khuzestan School’. From among new-generation story writers of Khuzestan, Nasim Marashi, the author of the “Haras” novel, can be cited. Having been well versed in indigenous elements of southwestern Iran, she tells her story. This paper studies regional literature’s criteria such as dialect, clothing, food, climate, customs and beliefs in Haras novel adopting an analytical-descriptive method. Results reveal that realism, geography, and regional identity account for Marashi’s success in telling the history of part of a territory which recalls the second-long war of the twentieth century in its memories. Accordingly, she has managed to add “writing about war” to the three types of southern regional literature (writing about sea, writing about an industrial area, and writing about a rural environment).
