I just can’t stop myself from eating that cake. I asked my husband to please take the cake and throw it away in the stinky gross outside garbage can. I walked out of the room. I could hear him going to the refrigerator and pulling the cake out. The front door opened and very quietly closed. I felt a hole in my dessert stomach, (I have two stomachs, one for regular food and one for dessert). I knew the job had been done when I heard him come back in the house. I returned to the room feeling strong and empowered again…..until I saw the frosting on his lips.

A country in chaos and a family torn asunder… In the midst of the upheaval and violence of Iran’s 1979 revolution, a young girl struggles to make sense of a complex swirl of mystery and change.
In the novel, The Rose Hotel, Dr. Rahimeh Andalibian tells the true-life story of her Iranian Muslim family and two brutal crimes, one that her father solved and another of which her brother is accused.
The Iranian-born author takes us first into the early intimacy of her pious family as they lived in prosperity in their luxury hotel in Mashhad, Iran. Their life of beauty and tranquility is ruptured by revolution, followed by a fall from grace, as her homeland is forever altered and her family uprooted, first to London, and finally to California, where they suffer a different kind of revolution. Struggling to acculturate and adjust to a new host culture in America, they soon discover that although they escaped Iran, they were not free from their own lies and hidden truths.
Heartbreaking and intimately told, The Rose Hotel is a story of healing, rebirth after tragedy, and hard-won redemption.
