Opening the beguiling Babylon Caf , they charmed the locals with their warm hearts and delectable Persian cuisine, bringing a saffron-scented spice to the once-sleepy village. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut when a young woman with a dark secret literally washes up on Clew Bay Beach, the sisters' world is once again turned upside down. With pale skin and webbed hands, the girl is otherworldly, but her wounds tell a more earthly (and graver) story-one that sends the strict Catholic town into an uproar. The Aminpours rally around the newcomer, but each sister must also contend with her own transformation-Marjan tests her feelings for love with a dashing writer, Bahar takes on a new spiritual commitment with the help of Father Mahoney, and Layla matures into a young woman when she and her boyfriend, Malachy, step up their hot and heavy relationship. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFilled with mouthwatering recipes and enchanting details of life in Ireland, Rosewater and Soda Bread is infused with a lyrical warmth that radiates from the Aminpour family and their big-hearted Italian landlady, Estelle, to the whole of Ballinacroagh-and the world beyond. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for Marsha Mehran's Pomegranate Soup\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"A mouthwatering tale with flavors of Chocolat and Under the Tuscan Sun . . . sinfully sweet and satisfying.\"\u003cbr\u003e-Orlando Sentinel \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Glorious, daring, and delightful, filled with humor, hope, and possibility.\" \u003cbr\u003e-Adriana Trigiani, author of the Big Stone Gap novels \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"An enchanting tale of love, family, and renewal.\"\u003cbr\u003e-Firoozeh Dumas, author of Laughing Without an Accent\u003ci\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBorn in Tehran, Iran, Marsha Mehran escaped the Revolution with her family.
