A Mirror Garden: A Memoir by Monir Farmanfarmaian, Zara Houshmand

5.0

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The author, born in Iran in 1924, goes on to become a celebrated artist. She is smart, savvy, determined and highly capable, not to mention extremely prolific. She seemed to be an incredibly engaging and charming woman who overcame any obstacle in her path. The story weaves in the cultural and political history of Iran which affected and influenced every aspect of her life. I loved her and her story.
