AUTHOR

Fitzgerald, Laura

SUMMARY

In her compelling debut novel, Laura Fitzgerald captures the cross-cultural experience of one young woman who leaves the oppressive confines of Iran to experience the intoxicating freedom of America. Tamila Soroush wanted it all. But in Iran, hope is a dangerous thing for a girl. That's why a one-way plane ticket to America is the greatest gift Tami's parents could have given her on her twenty-seventh birthday. Getting to America seems easy enough, but figuring out a way to stay for an extended period of time proves to be a whole other matter. Hoping never to return to the suffocating life that awaits her back in Iran, Tami must find a husband in the three short months she has in the United States. However, dealing with feelings she has never before experienced and desires she never imagined could be fulfilled, Tami must decide exactly how much she is willing to give up in order to stay in America. With a humorous and truly intuitive voice, Fitzgerald illuminates the way in which Tami drinks in the freedom that every American girl experiencesand takes for grantedon a daily basis. Her writing emits a remarkable compassion and understanding for a young woman caught between worlds. The questions and discussion topics that follow are intended to enhance your reading of Laura Fitzgerald'sVeil of Roses.Fitzgerald, Laura is the author of 'Veil of Roses', published 2006 under ISBN 9780553383881 and ISBN 0553383884.
