Synopsis:

In Tehran in 1958, Nasser Ali Khan, one of Iran's most acclaimed tar players, discovers that his beloved instrument has been irrevocably damaged, lauches a fruitless search for another one to replace it, and takes to his bed, renouncing the world, its pleasures, and life itself. By the author of Persepolis. 50,000 first printing.
