Imperfect

Katy Motiey’s IMPERFECT is a lightly fictionalized account of an Iranian family that covers the 1970s’ Civil unrest before and after the Shah retreats. How those changes affect a new widow and her two children are more a matter of long-held traditions and culture than the ongoing demonstrations. Sympathy, outrage, and, finally, a breath of relief will envelop readers as they follow Vida, Roya, and Kasra after the sudden death of their father Kamran and their encounters with relatives and their flights to Munich, London, and Boston.
