Spanning four decades from 1979 through 2009, this multi-voiced narrative follows the turbulent journey of an Iranian family navigating political upheaval, exile, and homecoming. Beginning with the initial high hopes of the 1979 revolution through the eyes of a passionate young activist, the story traces how shifting regimes force the family to seek refuge in West Germany. Later sections explore generational divides, contrasting the parents’ persistent longing for their homeland with their children’s complex relationship to a country they barely remember, culminating against the turbulent backdrop of the Green Revolution.
