Iran is a land of broiling conflict as dramatic as its landscapes.As Sasha's family traveled to Mashhad, he watched the Iranian landscape unfolding before him. Not a blade of grass, only desolate salt flats with dark foreboding mountains looming in the distance. How could anyone live there? When he arrived in Mashhad, he discovered an enchanted land! The cherry and apple trees in the garden were blooming with white blossoms. Huge red and yellow roses filled the air with their perfume as they swayed in the gentle breeze. The snowy tops of the northern mountains glowed like rubies under the rays of the setting sun. There were magnificent Persian carpets in every room of the house, were they magical? Sasha lived in Iran from 1935 to 1954, a time of great upheaval and transition. Iran had just begun awakening from its medieval slumber to find its new identity.
