sarashakouri 's review for:
Pomegranate Soup
by Marsha Mehran
Stopped reading the book after suffering from the forced prose, desperate attempts for being exotic,
and preposterous story line for about fifty pages. I was wrong. I should have stopped earlier, when I noted that an author without the slightest ability in writing decent text is trying to remotely evoke the memory of Remedios the Beauty.
And no, rosewater does not smell as sensual as the writer imagines it to be; used in high quantities, it exudes a sickly smell, sometimes reminding you of a garbage heap, about to decompose. Just like Pomegranate Soup.
