This was a sweet and romantic story that also reflected the influence of turbulent times and societal pressures on the young at this time in history. In the summer of 1953, a country got changed, so did the lives of 2 people. The Stationary Shop of Tehran by Marjan KamaliIf you wanna have your heart broken and then beautifully put back together. Beautiful writing that packed an emotional punch.

Heartbreaking and heart warming in equal measure. The character of Rosa is one which represents the change in Iranian society as the country evolved under the ruling of the Prime Minister Mossadegh as Rosa and her sister were able to move to the USA on their own to study.

I loved learning about Iranian culture, especially the food - I actually dribbled at one point! The couples love story is SO unfair, the last chapter put a lump in my throat yet I was left feeling boosted and positive!

A very well written story of love and aftermath, when it gets lost. Very cleverly plotted. They made me believe in the positivity and non toxicity of true love. This one would keep you captivated till the end.

It is a story of Iran, its food, its people, its hospitality. Roya and Bahman are the star crossed lovers.
