520 |a "The Iranian Revolution of 1979 led to a wide diaspora, with many Iranians ending up in the United States. To mark the 40th anniversary of the revolution, the editors have brought together over 40 writers to reflect on the Iranian-American experience during this period through their personal narratives. Some of these authors migrated to the US as a result of the diaspora, some were born here to Iranian parents, and a few are connected to Iran by marriage. This multi-generational assemblage includes established authors, such as Tara Bahrampour, Jasmin Darznik, and Hooman Majd, as well as emerging writers whose voices shed fresh light on themes of identity, duality, and living as the "other" in 21st-century America. Under the shadow of renewed tensions with Iran due to the current political climate, it's important to hear the voices of Iranians and Iranian-Americans and to understand their experiences"--  |c Provided by publisher.
