Description

Andree Malraux, the highly cultured French writer and philosopher once said: "There is mysticism everywhere in Iran..."In her book of short stories, "The Garden of Reflection and Other Short Stories", FloZa writes about her own experience in this country. From France - FloZa brings to life the residents, and the social culture of modern-day Iran in a contemporary collection of short stories inspired by her real-life experience, "The Garden of Reflection and Other Short Stories"."The Garden of Reflection and Other Short Stories" describes, light-heartedly and with philosophy, the adventures of a young woman, who for family reasons comes back to her country of origin after 17 years of absence, and finds it all totally changed due to the Revolution. The way she and her half-European son are received, however, strongly impresses her. Through her stories, FloZa introduces the readers to the Iranian people, their customs, and the importance of family ties in their culture... FloZa draws ample inspiration from her own journey raising her son during 7 years in Iran. She writes:"Indeed, I was impressed by the care and attention that we witnessed every day in Iran. We had nowhere to go and we were accepted kind-heartedly. We spent 7 wonderful years together with our family. Maybe it was the war years that had created such patience and solidarity among the people, I don't know. During that particular time of my life it did me a lot of good to be there, sheltered, cared for, and feeling in no danger whatsoever".In Iran, I met a strong feeling of tolerance towards children and a general appreciation and respect for "the woman." We should keep in mind that Iran has inherited a very old and refined culture, and a tradition of tolerance and understanding that still exists among the population".
