Abstract: The reception is one of the new theories, which has opened a new way in comparative studies over the recent decades. This theory, post by Hans Robert Jauss, returns the readers' role to themselves and insists on it. In as much as in this theory the reception of an author is considered in a foreign country, the reception of Christian Bobin, contemporary French author, is going to be considered in this article. By preparing a list of his translated books in Iran and their analysis by using the concept of Horizon of expectation, we will understand that there is no contradiction between the Iranians' expectations and Bobin's books. The influence of religious texts and using the themes like nature, love and childhood agree with their literary taste and play a role in the reception of this French author.
