This was such a beautifully written memoir.
I really wish that her sister Pari had not passed and that she would have got to see her son. When I looked at her picture I felt that she really did have the look of an actress.
I could feel the warmth and comfort of her "mother's" home. She describes everything with so much feeling.
It is a little sad that she didn't teach her own daughter anything about her culture and how to speak Farsi. I understand why she didn't though. I'm sure she would have loved more than anything to take her daughter to see their family and friends in Iran.
