Such an interesting memoir. Immersive, relatable, and not sensationalist. Unlike many other memoirs, so far at this point, it is a "light" book (by light I mean not gory or gruesome). I find so much of my upbringing in a religious family (a traditional catholic rather than Shia muslim) while trying to find my Self-identity.

Parsa’s memoir on his life as a Muslim gay growing up during the Islamic revolution. Great storytelling, so far. Easy to follow and extremely informative. TBP by the end this month.
