about the authors
Mahyar and Mahbod Amouzegar, brothers born in Tehran, emigrated to the United States as teenagers amidst the upheaval of the Iranian Revolution. Both grew up in San Francisco, where the city’s literary culture and the rise of the tech industry shaped their creative and intellectual paths. Mahyar, the author of four novels, explores themes of identity, resilience, and the human condition. Mahbod, inspired by his parents' literary legacy, has edited and published his mother’s works and is compiling his father’s memoir. This novel represents the culmination of a lifelong journey to reconnect with their heritage. By weaving together elements of their past and present, the Amouzegar brothers have crafted a story that bridges imagination, memory, and the enduring ties of family.
