Pasha and Ahmed spend hours on his rooftop talking, joking, dreaming and contemplating life. This is a coming of age book that appears simple in the beginning but as the story progresses life gets complicated due to arranged marriage customs, and modern ideas from western society. The SAVAK cause confusion, heartbreak and death. I felt like I was sitting on the rooftop experiencing life. #rooftopsoftehran #mahbodseraji #iran #savak
This book isn't meant to be rushed through. It's a good coming of age read rich with character development as we see the main character be a regular teenage boy in love with the girl next door, to growing up and becoming an adult through horrible experiences. Worth a read albeit slow paced.
