Pagine ingiallite ai bordi, residuo di etichetta al piatto posteriore della copertina. Jasmine à cresciuta in America, ma à sempre stata affascinata dal suo enigmatico padre, un iraniano dal passato misterioso, mentre non à mai andata troppo d'accordo con sua madre, una rigida e compassata cittadina americana. Negli ultimi tempi, dopo il disastroso fallimento della sua storia d'amore, Jasmine sta attraversando una crisi profonda, che la porterà ad abbandonare il college a un passo dalla laurea. Tormentata e disillusa, non immagina quale direzione prenderà la sua vita. Il padre invece un'idea sembra averla, e anche molto precisa: con l'inaspettata complicità della madre, intende organizzare per la figlia un hastegar, un matrimonio combinato. In un primo momento Jasmine non prende sul serio il progetto dei genitori, almeno fino a quando iniziano a farsi avanti i pretendenti, con risultati sempre pià disastrosi (e tragicomici). Confusa, arrabbiata e incuriosita al tempo stesso, Jasmine pian piano si aprirà ai misteri dell'amore familiare e romantico e scoprirà cosà la verità su suo padre e su una figura ancora pià enigmatica: se stessa.
