As part of Reading’s Big Read author Marjan Kamali will read from and discuss her new book Together Tea. In this delightful novel, Darya has discovered the perfect gift for her daughter’s twenty-fifth birthday: a husband. Mina, however, is fed up with her mother’s years of endless matchmaking and the spreadsheets grading available Iranian-American bachelors. Having spent her childhood in Tehran and the rest of her life in New York City, Mina has experienced cultural clashes firsthand, but she’s learning that the greatest clashes sometimes happen at home.
