“Meet the women of the Valiat family. In Iran, they were somebodies. In America, they're nobodies.”
The Persians is a riotously funny and deeply moving debut novel following five women from three generations of a once illustrious Iranian family as their lives are turned upside down.
Author Sanam Mahloudji was born in Tehran but left during the Islamic Revolution and she will join us to discuss her brilliant new book and the themes of representation, motherhood and family history as well as what it means to identify as Persian or Iranian in 2025.
“Spanning from 1940s Iran into a splintered 2000s, these five women are pulled apart and brought together by revolutions personal and political. The Persians is a darkly funny, deeply moving and profoundly searching portrait of a unique family in crisis. Here is their past, their present and a possible new future for them all.”
