Ê"When we observe Khoi's works in the field of modern Persian poetry, we see a great poet originally following the lead of great forerunners such as Mehdi Akhavan-Sales, but soon finding his own way and his own style. So far as the contents are concerned, Khoi's poems are reflections of his time. In his works, many social and political upheavals are reflected and put forward with a philosophical approach. They are overflowing with ifs and whys. They are sometimes as ferocious as a river rushing down a ravine and sometimes as soft and calm as the same river flowing through open, peaceful countryside. Ò Lotfali Khonji
