Full Description
She’s smart and articulate, funny and vivacious and from a good family...and she’s tall. So why isn’t she married yet at the ripe age of 25? Cultural anthropology does a screaming loop-the-loop in Tanaz Eshaghian’s completely honest and fearless look at her own love life. It’s a titanic clash of cultures: the unquestioning traditions of a Persian Jewish family upbringing versus the crazy rollercoaster of love and dating that modern American life offers. Eshaghian is not afraid to pose hard questions to her family, friends and boyfriends--and they’re not afraid to zing her with stinging answers. Shot over four years, Love Iranian-American Style pursues the paradoxes of a lovelorn life and, throughout, Eshaghian maintains a ferocious charm that serves her well in continuing to push forward--even as she gets more than she’d bargained for.
