Community Book Group with Mahbod Seraji
10/20/2009 7:30 pm

Please join us for our Community
Book Group—a monthly book group open to everyone in the community and
centered on works by Bay Area authors. Bookshop’s next Community Book Group selection is Mahbod Seraji’s powerful new novel, Rooftops of Tehran.
Set in 1970s Iran during the shah's regime, Seraji's wonderful coming-of-age story is at times funny and sweet as well as thought-provoking and heart-wrenching. Booklist calls it "a powerful tale of the universal longings of teenagers compounded by the horrors of tyranny."
Julie Minnis will lead our facilitated discussion of Rooftops of Tehran at 7:30pm, and author Mahbod Seraji will join us at 8:00pm to discuss his writing process and answer your questions. Like all great book groups meetings, there will be snacks and tea!
