My blogs
| Introduction | My family comes from a country of martyrs, fresh cream pastries, and extreme complexity -- a country dangerously stereotyped by camels, carpets, and terrorists. In my past lives, I have lived as a dolphin, a butterfly, a defense attorney, a martian, a dancer, and the dream of an insomniac deeply sleeping. |
|---|---|
| Favorite movies | My Cousin Vinny, Children of Heaven (Iranian), Jaws, The People and the Land, Life and Debt, Flirt, Ghost, and I thought Manchurian Candidate was disturbing but gripping |
| Favorite books | The Alchemist, Love in the Time of Cholera, Always Running, The Autobiography of Malcolm X, Covering Islam. The Captain's Verses, Some of Us did not Die, The God of Small Things, Native Son. |

On the moon, clearly. That is where all my other identities were raised, so they could watch the earth version of me very carefully.
