Title: WALKING WITH MOHAMMED
Review: A bittersweet coming-of-age story set in Tehren during the years 1909-1940. I became absorbed in young Mohammed's life whose joys are few but whose spirit guides him through poverty, seductions, and betrayal. He is a man trying to find Home.Shary's research and knowledge of the Persian landscape gives the story a richly textured setting. She explores the different lifestyles between the classes and between the genders. Political and societal progress is noted as Mohammed finds he must change, first, his mode of transportation and then, his alliances.For those who like finely drawn exotic landscapes and a happy ending after much travail, this book is definitely for you.
