Harry Bennett Branch Book Discussion Via Zoom: The Lion Women of Tehran by Marjan Kamali

The Lion Women of Tehran by Marjan Kamali

In 1950s Tehran, 7-year-old Ellie’s life changes when her father dies and she’s forced to move with her mother to a small home. Lonely and seeking companionship, Ellie befriends Homa, a spirited girl with whom she shares a deep bond. They play, cook and dream of becoming strong, independent women. But when Ellie’s family returns to a more privileged life, their friendship fades. Years later, Homa reappears in Ellie’s life, and their paths converge amid Iran’s growing political unrest, leading to a life-altering betrayal.
