In the Time of Our History (2023)
Susanne Pari
"Susanne Pari has eloquently captured the complexity of family in this Iranian-American story - defiance in the face of patriarchy, sacrifice, the corrosive nature of secrets, and the satisfaction of finding one's own path. After closing the last page, I'm still thinking about how well we really know those closest to us."
Wench (2009)
Dolen Perkins-Valdez
"A finely wraught story that explores the emotional lives of four slave women caught in the web of the peculiar institution."
