This is one of those books that #bookstagram made me buy, and I’m not disappointed AT ALL!
If you are looking for an historical fiction with a passionating and captivating narrative, you can stop looking! 
 The story is set in post-revolution Iran and follows the story of a family, who after a tragic event fled Tehran trying to rebuilding their life away from the revolution, trying to protect their own freedom and forget about their sorrows, but will fate allow them to do so?
 The writing of Shokoofeh Azar is enchanting, and manage to tell awful events while in such a lyrical way, at some moments it felt I was reading a fairy tale.
