Through war and peace, loss and triumph, the strongest among us do what they can to hold onto their dreams.
Maryam Tabibzadeh?s rich novel invites the reader to experience one hundred years of Iranian history through the eyes of its passionate characters.
Talah: Born in the late nineteenth century to a well-to-do family, she must find a way
to survive after the loss of her second husband.
Baback: In an era of great social change, Talah's first son struggles with his faith as he becomes involved in a heated love affair.
Nosha: Strong and ambitious, the daughter of Baback won't accept the second-class citizenship that her country has traditionally forced upon females. Interweaving fact and fiction, Persian Dreams brings to life a culture and history
that is largely unknown to Westerners, revealing a family, and a story you will never forget.
Persian Dreams are the dreams of the women of Persia/Iran;dreams of freedom of choice, freedom to choose the man they wish to marry and freedom to become all that they can be.
Maryam Tabibzadeh is a born storyteller. She draws the reader into the story with magnificent detail, heart wrenching emotion and lifelike characters. Persian Dreams is the fascinating story of three generations.

reviewed Persian Dreams on May 21, 2016 Persian Dreams
I feel very honoured to have read this story, and I hope my review does it justice. How can you explain something beautifully written and with deep compassion and honesty? As a westerner who lives in an open free country it is so difficult to understand the disregarding attitudes of males towards their destitute female relatives.
The narration takes the reader through three generations of family. Beginning with Talah a young girl with dreams who survived four husbands yet due to the law of her country, was left each time,with no inheritance. The story follows her and her beautiful attitude to life. She is thankful for everything and meekly abides by the cultural rules, and her, not so kind, male relatives. Next we read of the ups and downs of one of her son Babak, a kindly, caring, dreamer.
Finally, the story finishes off telling of, the life his daughter Noosha. Her desire to become a doctor no matter the obstacles displays a courageous woman, one who because of her fathers love, fulfils her dream. The story progresses on to the political changes in Persia and the rise of radicalized Islam. This book is a real eye-opener and hopefully will help the world to understand more about the war torn Middle East.
