4.9/5 (19053 ratings)

Description:Solacers tells the story of little Alireza, a six thousand-year-old soul incarnated in modern Iran. The first child of a heartless father and a discarded mother, the boy is left to fend for himself on the streets of pre-revolution Iran following his parents' divorce. His lonely early years are an unbelievable tale of cruelty and betrayal by nearly everyone, save for one aunt who leaves the door to her home partially open to him and a penurious feeble old stranger who shares her small adobe room, haves and have-nots with the little boy. With ancient wisdom in his subconscious mind and optimism in his heart, Alireza trudges through the harsh and solitary childhood as he learns to balance himself on thin ropes of hope through life's exquisite imbalances.How differently would you live if you knew that life is not real, at least not in the sense that you believe it is? That you have been here many times before and will be many times again? Would you be less worried, take more chances, be kinder, perhaps? One thing is for sure; you would certainly have more fun living the life You have chosen.Best Nonfiction Finalist, Stanford University– William Saroyan International Prize.One of 30 Moving memoirs every student should read. –OnlineCollegeThe boy’s relationship with any one of the people in his life would be the stuff of awards-nominated novels and Oscar-bait films.–Anthony R. Cardno, Author.He was neither an orphan nor a street kid but life dealt him such a hand that now, those who hear the story of his childhood in Iran, consider him an Oliver Twist in the streets of Mashhad.–BBCIf you devoured “The Glass Castle,” vividly remember “Angela's Ashes,” and were fascinated by “Destined to Witness,” if you loved the colorful descriptions, the oriental storytelling, and the ornate language of Khaled Hosseini’s “The Kite Runner,” you will definitely get your money’s worth reading “Solacers,” by the American author Arion Golmakani.–J. Brocker, Westfälische Nachrichten.Congratulation on writing such a first-class book.–Ehsan Yarshater, Author of Encyclopedia Iranica, founder, and director of The Center for Iranian Studies, and Emeritus Professor of Iranian Studies at Colombia University.A story of hope, determination, and forgiveness, Solacers is a remarkable tale of resilience and optimism, with lessons for us all.
