Book Reviews of My Name Is Iran: A Memoir
Book Review: A MUST READ!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This book does much to bridge the gap between Iran and America bringing together three generations of women living between the cultures, each achieving notoriety in their respective careers; one a nurse, one a theologian and one a journalist. The men are equally as accomplished and obviously unequipped to relate to such powerful women. This book is a great read and should be used for classrooms from high school to college as it avoids the modern tendency to sensationalize the intimate relationships instead preferring to rely on the reader's intelligence and ability to understand the more mature issues. Ms. Ardalan is a first time author and the most recent in a long line of story tellers - I look forward to more.
