[What is #OctTBR2022? I explain it here.]
What It Is: The memoir of an Iranian (?) boy transplanted to Oklahoma.
Why I’m Reading It: This book was released in 2021 and received a lot of positive buzz. Thanks to the kindness of a friend, I was able to get a copy for myself. The author’s story is not just about his experience growing up in a new culture, but the story of his mother who converted from Islam to Christianity and then fought to build a new life for herself and her son. I’m intrigued.
