Rooftops of Tehran by Mahbod Seraji

3.0

I love history and love how the authors enrich the story in a fictional story. We get to follow the main character Pasha's journey in Iran. This was Iran before the Iranian revolution took place, in 1978-1979. Although the story is fictional, you as a reader can read about what it was like in Iran in the past. How the great powers in Iran governed the various ethnic groups and how many, especially young people, demonstrated for their rights. We also get to read how the love for their friends, families but also their loved ones was the basis for survival. An incredibly fine book with a very rich history of Iran.
