Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. 278 pages. A stunning debut novel set in post-Revolutionary I ran that gives voice to the men, women, and children who won a wa r only to find their lives - and those of their descendants - imp eriled by its aftermath. We all have a tree inside us.Finding it is just a matter of time. Neda is born in Evin Prison, where her mother is allowed to nurse her for a few months before the arms o f a guard appear at the cell door one day and, simply, take her a way. Omid, at age three, witnesses the arrests of his political a ctivist parents from his perch at their kitchen table, yogurt dri pping from his fingertips. More than twenty years after the viole nt, bloody purge that took place inside Tehran's prisons, Sheida learns that her father was one of those executed, that the silent void firmly planted between her and her mother all these years w as not just the sad loss that comes with death, but the anguish a nd the horror of murder. Neda, Omid, and Sheida are just three of the many unforgettable characters in Sahar Delijani's startling debut novel, Children of the Jacaranda Tree. Set in post-revoluti onary Iran, from 1983 to 2011, it follows a group of mothers, fat hers, children, and lovers, some connected by family, others brou ght together by the tide of history that forces its way into thei r lives. Finally, years later, it is the next generation that is left with the burden of the past and their country's tenuous futu re as a new wave of protest and political strife begins. Based on the harrowing experiences of Delijani, her family, and friends, Children of the Jacaranda Tree is a moving, timely drama about th ree generations of men and women moved by love, inspired by poetr y, and motivated by dreams of justice and freedom. For fans of Th e Kite Runner and In the Shadow of the Banyan, it is a stunningly evocative look at the intimate side of revolution and a brillian t tribute to anyone who has answered the call of history.
