Loved this book for so many reasons. It has a different sense of humor in some ways, but also breaks your heart many times over. There are many wonderful passages and descriptions where it seems nothing was lost in translation.

Love. Love. Love.
An irrascible man. A persistent pregnant Iranian woman. A cat. Amazing how these three characters can be so compelling. I'm still wiping the tears from my cheeks as I say: Read this book!
