The Last Days of Café Leila

Beschreibung

"When Noor returns to her native Iran for the first time in thirty years, with her very American daughter, Lily, so much about her homeland is different. But Cafâe Leila -- the restaurant Noor's family has run for three generations -- hasn't changed. A neighborhood cafâe in Tehran is at the center of this powerful and transporting story of love, family, friendship, and homecoming told against the backdrop of Iran's rich, yet tragic, history."--
