Description:
Toronto: Inanna Publications and Education, 2017 Book. New. Soft cover. 1st Canadian Edition. "Mehri Yalfani's stories in The Street of Butterflies feature Iranian women dealing with displacement, cultural change, and struggles for survival and adaptation as immigrants in North America. At the same time, the challenges they face also reveal the racial, gendered and cultural anxieties of these same individuals who carry with them the biases of their country of origin to the norms of the new land. 'Soleiman's Silence,' 'Felicia,' 'If You Were I,' 'Geranium Family,' and 'Line,' all portray many dimensions of the migrant's strive (or the refusal) to build a home, away from home.

Description:
New York: Modern Library, 2001 Book. New. Soft cover. Uncorrected Proof. The book chronicles her travels into Luristan, the mountainous terrain nestled between Iraq and present-day Iran, often with only a single guide and on a shoestring budget. Stark writes engagingly of the nomadic peoples who inhabit the region's valleys and brings to life the stories of the ancient kingdoms of the Middle East, including that of the Lords of Alamut, a band of hashish-eating terrorists whose stronghold in the Elburz Mountains Stark was the first to document for the Royal Geographical Society. Her account is at once a highly readable travel narrative and a richly drawn, sympathetic portrait of a people told from their own compelling point of view. This edition includes a new Introduction by Jane Fletcher Geniesse.. 301p. Advance Uncorrected Proof.
