Synopsis

Tiny Neek loved stories and enjoyed running around and playing with animals on his grandma's pasture. Outdoors were everything to him, pure and simple. His father, however, had a different plan for him. Neek halfheartedly attended the classes but held on to the adventurous stories. Although his transition from a small village to Tehran and then to Michigan was an adventure, in and of itself, life had more in store for him. Michigan inadvertently changed his name to Nick but afforded him a beautiful wife. After losing his wife, he left Michigan for Mississippi. While working there, he organized a quiz game for the high school kids in a farming town. Darius, the first winner of the game, made a prestigious career based on that victory. There was an uncanny resemblance between his family and that of Darius's family. However, the dark secrets of Darius's family from decades earlier upended all that.

À propos de l'auteur

I consider myself lucky and proud to say that I was born and raised in Iran, in an area known as the North. The Caspian Sea region is indeed a slice of Heaven on earth. Although I completed my schooling in Tehran, the North remains my favorite home, partly due to many memorable events I experienced there. I was surrounded by very kind, honest, and hardworking people. My sweet nana, aunts, uncles, and their families kindly hosted me every summer for years all through my college years. Their rice farms and gardens, plus the beautiful scenery of the region, not ignoring their amazing culture, have found a way to show up in my writings and art works. After moving to the U.S., I completed my graduate studies in biology/microbiology. Later on, I became interested in understanding human behaviors and their interpersonal relationships. Thus, I studied psychiatry and made a career of it up until my retirement.
