Writer Susanne Pari has assembled a fascinating look at the lives of Iranian-American women through a panel of authors reading from and discussing their works, the modern immigrant experience and its impact both on writing and the role of women.

Whether writing fiction or non-fiction, Gina B. Nahai ("Moonlight on the Avenue of Faith"), Tara Bahrampour ("To See and See Again: A Life in Iran and America"), Roxane Farmanfarmaian ("Blood & Oil: Inside the Shah's Iran"), and Susanne Pari ("The Fortune Catcher") offer compelling examinations of what it means to be Iranian, American, and female.

Cosponsored by the Library's International Center, World Affairs Council and Stacey's Bookstores and Book Passage Bookstore with support fromthe Friends & Foundation of the San Francisco Public Library and the Women's Interfaith Dialogue on the Middle East
