Tangled in Turquoise

TANGLED IN TURQUOISE (the 'colour' of Iran) is a wonderfully moving account of the author's life which began in Britain just after the Second World War. Born into a very ordinary family, she tells of the changes in life-style she experienced when, as a young woman, she fell in love with an Iranian, whom she married, and then lived with in Iran during the 1970s. The Shah was ruling Iran at the time and did so for the next eight years until the dramatic turn of events that culminated in the Iranian Revolution in 1979, bringing with it a change in culture under a new political regime. These events, together with the war between Iraq and Iran which ensued not long after, altered the course of her life again when she and her husband decided to leave Iran and return to Britain in the 1980s. But that's only part of the story...As you travel with her through the pages of her life from the West to the Middle East--and back again--her gripping story will hold your attention right to the end. Prepare to be affected by what has been described as a story and a half: it's a page- turning, must-read for all those interested in people. This is Bobbi Davari's first book. Brilliant. Just couldn't put it down. Should be an inspiration to others.
