Together Tea

Read the Lion Women of Tehran and then this. Both are lovely books. Lion women of Tehran tugs at your heart and this is a book of memories and sweet childhood

It's an amazing story woven in Iran and the US and talks of the lead characters journey to discovering herself and love. This book will make you happy but also will reveal what the revolution did to Iran and subsequently to people who fled the authoritarian regime.

The condition of the book received was very good, it's brand newAnd I love the story too. I would recommend this to my fellow readers

"Together Tea" is a poignant and evocative novel exploring themes of identity, culture, family, and belonging. The story follows Darya, an Iranian-American woman, as she navigates her complicated past, cultural heritage, and complex relationships.

An unputdownable book. Filled with emotions, memories, childhood, horrific effects of wars and many more. Such excellent use of imageries by the author. A great piece of work. Must read.

So this was my third read from the author and there's a certain inimitable style that holds all the three books together and adds similarity to the writing and characterisations to an extent. Not as good as the Lion Woman of Tehran but can be read on the casual. Good character development, storyline is not something unheard of before in fiction build on similar lines, vivid description of Persipolis. On the negatives, some of the forced coincidences that I have seen from the author in The Stationary Shop of Iran too...towards the end there's a hurried scatter of plots and a desperate attempt to bring everything together under a utopic sun. And then there's marriage, the ultimate culmination of everything good and supersonic coincidences that lead to the same. The author should attempt at a more realistic portrayal of reality.
