Review: Bazaar Stories by Hemila Pedram
One of a Kind Travel Adventure
Hemila Pedram’s Bazaar Stories is more than a travel diary through the soul of Iran, but a journey of physical and spiritual healing—an adventure into the resplendent generosity of the human heart. Hemila takes her reader with her on walks through the winding streets of Persian bazaars to encounter delightful characters of profound kindness or subtle insight. Artists and craftspeople, shopkeepers, and people of all walks of life tell their stories and offer their visions of happiness on the streets of this often misrepresented country.
Hemila presents a universal spiritual vision, not of one religion or another, but from a grounded foundation of human generosity that will always surprise us around every corner. This is a timely book of subtle beauty and quiet power. I highly recommend it!
