A beautiful, mellow book about several generations of a family going through the upheaval of Iran during the revolution. It reminded me of Geert Mak's stories, where people are nostalgic for the old times.

Lovely written. It's fascinating that a book about Persia and Iran was written in Dutch. The language is simple, not always very smooth, but a beautiful style.

I read this book in December 2019, a nice book to read during the holidays.
