hi all, I finished reading this book last night, I have a Q. You know the letters that Bahman wrote to Roya (when he was up north with his parents and then married with family), did Roya ever get those letters? Or wer they just included in the book but that she had not actually received them? And how did his Mum change the meeting place in the letter he wrote to her (the names of the squares)? TIA
