Being Iranian in the United States near the September 11, 2001 attacks can be a trying experience. That is one of the important events in this novel. A family of Iranian immigrants had struggles even before these events. The father and son did not communicate well. After this, the son (in New York) ended up getting a girlfriend who was almost half Iranian. The culmination was a trip to Iran that would be taken with Father, Son and girlfriend. The son freaks out and goes through all sorts of contortions not to go. He even ends up in Germany on the way there before freaking and returning home.
