A review by mystormingbooks
A Teaspoon of Earth and Sea by Dina Nayeri
5.0
This book is so much in touch with the real feelings of immigrants.
The longing for a home it is not longer yours.
The longing to belong and blend while not loosing who you are.
People thinking there's a bias towards "American" stuff is not understanding the deep feelings that one can hold when wanting to leave a place that rejects you somehow.
And on top, it's a book that shows another face of Iran and the Persian history and traditions.
Amazing and touching.
