A powerful story of friendship and passion, fear and hope - and a rare insider's view of Iranian society
Massoumeh is an ordinary girl, passionate about learning. On her way to school she meets a local man and falls in love - but when her family discover his letters they accuse her of bringing them into dishonour, beat her and hastily arrange a marriage to a man she's never met.
The years that follow Massoumeh's wedding prove transformative for Iran. Her husband Hamid is a political dissident and when the secret service arrest him, it is the start of a terrifying period for Massoumeh. Her fate, so long dictated by family loyalty and tradition, is now tied to the changing fortunes of her country.

The novel that became a huge bestseller in Iran, before it was banned by the government.
