Meet Nahid Rachlin (website: http://www.nahidrachlin.com) author of Persian Girls (Penguin, 2006), a memoir: A story of promises kept and promises broken, of dreams and secrets, and most importantly, of sisters, "Persian Girls" is a gripping memoir that can change the way anyone looks at Iran and the women who populate it
Praised by V. S. Naipaul, Anne Tyler, and other writers, Nahid Rachlin has spent her career writing novels about hidden Iran-the combustible political passions underlying everyday life and the family dramas of ordinary Iranians. With her long-awaited memoir, "Persian Girls," she turns her sharp novelist's eye on her own remarkable life.
