Darius hasn’t really fit in in the home, and he’s sure stuff will be the same in Iran. His clinical depression doesn’t exactly help issues, and trying to explain his medicine to his grandparents only makes issues harder. After that Darius fits Sohrab, the son nearby, and everything changes. Soon, they’re spending their days together, playing soccer, eating faludeh, and speaking for hours on a secret rooftop looking over the city’s skyline. Sohrab phone calls him Darioush-the initial Persian edition of his name-and Darius has never felt similar to himself than he does now that he’s Darioush to Sohrab.

Adib Khorram’s outstanding debut is for anybody who’s ever was feeling bad enough-then met a pal who makes them feel so superior to okay.
