About the event
Join us for our May Book Club Meetup! We'll gather at Juno's, aka. The Wine Pub, to discuss The Lion Women of Tehran by Marjan Kamali.
Seven-year-old Ellie lives in grand comfort in Tehran until her father passes. This forces Ellie and her mother to move to a tiny home in downtown Tehran. As she bears her mother’s endless grievances and becomes lonely, Ellie hopes for a friend to bring her a slight bit of joy. On her first day of school, she meets Homa, a kind, passionate girl with a brave and irrepressible spirit. Together, the friends wander through the colorful stalls of the Grand Bazaar, and share their ambitions for becoming “lion women.” Their new world abruptly changes when Ellie and her mother are afforded the opportunity to return to their previous bourgeois life....
Marjan Kamali is the national and international bestselling author of The Lion Women of Tehran…
