Reader's Reviews
"From tales about medical school in Tehran, student uprisings against the Shah, his mother's sermons and his questions about religion, the workings of the universe, the terror which awaits child-brides, his loves, his family and ob-gyn practice to taking call in San Antonio, Dr. Saidi's writing reveals his gentle personality, respect for human beings, empathy for their suffering, and ability to speak truth to power in a calm, reasoned way as well as his particularly entertaining wit."
Good Reads Review:
The Garden of Milk and Wine
"This book was both a vivid account of Iran under the Shah and of the Iranian revolution, told with the authenticity of an author who had experienced the regimes. It is also a compelling page-turner story. I recommend it to those who want to know more about modern Iran from the Inside, and to those who enjoy a well-crafted compelling story."
Amazon Review:
The Marchers
"The Marchers: A Novel is a captivating story. The author creates an easy path for readers to fall in love with young Iranian patriots and their families and mourn multiple regimes of mass murder. I read it in two days as I couldn't put it down."
