What do You think about Terraços De Teerão (2011)?
The writing almost seemed juevenile at the beginning, but started to improve as the book progressed. Overall, the story is captivating and I finished this book in two days. I do wish there would have been more description about Iran itself during this period, as the story seemed to just focus on four main characters with little description of what was happening outside of their alley in which they live. I would recommend it, though!

Absolutly loved this book. the author gave me so much insight to Iran i have a much better understanding to that culture. i love the explnantion of the cries and abusive actions when a love one passes, the brief mentioned of foods and how importnat faily is to this culture. i feel the great connection of the families in the alley,the children playing. They is so much in this book. I would recoomend it a great weekend read.
