The Lion Women of Tehran

This book is the 2nd book that I'm reading from the same author.It's worth buying this book. Every chapter in this book is interesting. And the end of each chapter generates certain curiosity to know what's gonna happen next. So, if someone wants to buy this book please don't think whether to buy or not. Just order it.

3.5/5. Really slow and detailed, it’s painful to finish the inner details. I had to force myself to finish the political details. Maybe someone who loves historical politics won’t hate it. Plus the story felt too long. I mean, it could’ve been shortened. What I absolutely loved was the ending and the array of all emotions together. Happiness, the innocence of childhood, the angst of adolescence and the pain of adulthood. So yes it’s an okayish read. Loved stationary shop more than this one

Having read the Stationery Shop of Teheran, I could not resist picking up the Lion Women of Teheran. The story weaves beautifully about the two protagonists, their friendship despite their different background, and the true value of loyalty. Beautifully written, you can see yourself standing next to Ellie and Homa as they bring you into their world, their strife, their problems and the horror they suffer and how they emerge even stronger - Lion Women indeed! Marjan Kamali’s narrative of Iran, Iranian women and their courage and fight for freedom will resonate with all women across the world who are seeking the equality of rights and freedom from patriarchy.
