Set during the Iranian Revolution of 1979 and the ensuing Iran-Iraq
War of 1980aEURO""1988, the novel Martyrdom Street chronicles the
lives of three Iranian women, Fatemeh, Nasrin, and Yasaman. These
ordinary women tell their intimate stories of love, loss, betrayal,
and hope in intertwining narratives that unfurl simultaneously in
America and Iran. Kashani-Sabet's characters endure both the
familiar struggles of family relationships and searing political
upheavals. A mother and daughter come to terms with the burdens of
separation imposed by politics and exile. A young woman grapples
with the haunting memories of an assassination. The poignant
confessions of these skillfully wrought characters give voice to
the travails of two generations of Iranians and Iranian Americans.
