These evocative short stories put together in historical order, present a vivid mosaic of the dramatic, comic, lyrical, and tragic. Spanning 100 years, the tales are wonderfully diverse – a young girl is forced to marry a feudal lord much older than her, a village dandy falls in love with a beautiful woman in a foreign land, the treacherous role played by the people of Tehran when the democratically elected government of Dr Mosaddegh was overthrown by the help of the CIA, young boys in a remote village are asked to take part in horrific, absurd and comical religious ceremonies and festivals, a little boy who becomes intensely preoccupied with the secret lives of marionettes, a deeply religious adolescent who fails to have sex with a prostitute, a woman who is banned from singing under Sharia Law, a pigeon-fancier who falls in love with a young woman whose fanatic family cause a lot of problems for him – but together these tales create a sense of separate destinies entwined across time and space.
Tales of Iran edition by Feridon Rashidi Literature Fiction eBooks
The book contains multiple short stories about characters in various parts of relatively modern Iran. The author draws a vivid picture of the atmosphere in every story in a way you could picture yourself in that environment and sort of get a sense of life in those days.All the stories are very interesting and each paint a different picture of Iran which in my opinion is not only interesting but also gives the reader a good understanding of the society at that point in time.
Highly recommended.

Tales of Iran edition by Feridon Rashidi Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I am Persian and I really enjoyed reading this book especially the "Ashura" story. it reminded me of my childhood in Iran and the interactions I had personally experienced, it felt so genuine to me. The way the author tells the story it really takes you to that place at the time and you feel very involved in the story. He does a phenomenal job of describing the environment the characters are in. I would recommend the book to anybody who likes to get to know the Persian culture a bit better.
