While eleven-year-old Nazie has long been engaged to her cousin
Moussa and anxiously awaits her marriage, fifteen-year-old Flora
has been abandoned by her husband in the midst of a difficult
pregnancy. In a novel brimming with vitality and sensuality -
smells, colours and textures float effortlessly off the page -
Rabinyan examines the lives of these young Jewish girls in a
Persian village at the beginning of the twentieth century. Persian
Brides is a widely-acclaimed, vibrant and award-winning debut of
immense emotional power.
