ReviewsMarjan Kamali's thoughtful novel presents the story of a young Iranian woman's coming of age in modern America and her mother's parallel journey from the old world to the new. Kamali's writing spans oceans yet depicts a common humanity-a lovely work., "Marjan Kamali's thoughtful novel presents the story of a young Iranian woman's coming of age in modern America and her mother's parallel journey from the old world to the new. Kamali's writing spans oceans yet depicts a common humanity--a lovely work." -- Rishi Reddi, award-winning author of Karma and Other Stories "Compassionate, funny, and wise, Together Tea is a treasure of a novel. Marjan Kamali creates a wonderfully loving and real story about a mother and daughter, and their complicated cultural identity. Its remarkable scope-from 1970s Tehran to 1990s New York-is beautifully rendered." -- Jill Davis, bestselling author of Girls' Poker Night "Smart and witty, with characters so dear you want to pack your suitcase and travel with them wherever they can take you. How lucky I feel to have been given this baklava-delicious gift of Persian immersion from a New York point of view." -- Elinor Lipman "Sparkling dialogue and warm characters make Kamali's debut novel perfect for book clubs." -- Kirkus Reviews "Lyrical, vivid, and warm...Although there are differences in Mina's and Darya's American experiences, the author effectively evokes the pull both women feel toward Iran. She creates empathy for a people forced to live one life in public and another privately." -- Publishers Weekly "[A] lively debut...Kamali perfectly captures the sights, sounds, and smells of Tehran. Humor, romance, and tradition all combine in an enjoyable chick-lit tale, Iranian style." -- Booklist, Compassionate, funny, and wise, Together Tea is a treasure of a novel.
