Three young brothers leave Los Angeles for Iran, taken by their father to a country they barely know. They return to the Valley months later, changed in inexorable ways. The youngest brother begins to piece together a childhood shattered by his father's violence, a queer adolescence, and his ever-changing status as a Muslim in America. For readers of Ocean Vuong's 'On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous' and Yaa Gyasi's 'Transcendent Kingdom'.
