5 Star Rating  "Funny, perceptive, perfect touch"2008-08-06
- Reviewed By ellenwesel
I truly enjoyed this collection of stories, all written with a keen, perceptive eye, a humorous take on life, and a facility with words. I look forward to reading Laughing without an Accent.

Kazem, I hope that you read this review and are even prouder of your daughter!

This book started out funny and interesting and ended the same. At times I wished for more information, but overall the book was wonderful.
 
5 Star Rating  "Enjoyable Easy Read"2008-06-22
- Reviewed By jhearn27
The author has a knack for finding and telling the funny part of every situation. It was delightful to read her take on her experiences. Her tales are so entertaining, I was sad when the book was finished.

Thankfully, she has a new book out and I am ordering it NOW!

This is one book I will keep so I can reread stories whenever I need a good laugh.

It was refreshing to see how similar(in all the positive ways)families from differnt cultures actually are.
 
5 Star Rating  "Brilliant, Touching, Laugh-Out-Loud Funny"2008-06-19
- Reviewed By User: A216U33W3SW3MV
I read this book while on vacation with my husband and our two boys (ages 11 and 8), then my older son read it out loud to all of us during the time we were traveling by car in Italy. All of us laughed out loud as we listened to Dumas' touching and endearing, but oh-so-funny stories of her and her family's experiences in America. She is poignant and honest and brilliant. Her stories reminded us that we often have more in common with those who may seem different from us than we realize, whether those people are from a different country or from our own extended families. Now that we are back in America, we cannot wait to read her new book!

5 Star Rating  "A MUST READ for the entire family!"2008-06-05
- Reviewed By wendysprague
This easy read is full of humor and gives the reader a different way of looking at everyday items and events, from Twinkies, Kentucky Fried Chicken to holidays like Christmas. A friend lent her copy to us and my entire family enjoyed it so much we purchased our own copy plus the author's latest book. Read it for yourself to see how people are really more alike than they are different, and just see if you can contain the laughter.
 
5 Star Rating  "I learned a lot about things I thought I knew"2008-05-14
- Reviewed By khanjehgil
I spent three and a half years as a Peace Corps volunteer in Iran and became intimately familiar with Persian (Farsi) culture. But I learned many things from this book; it also serves a moral lesson to all "Amrikayi" about their rush to judgment to condemn a group of people for what some of them have done without being preachy. In spite of all that it was hilarious reading at so many different levels.

And if this is a repeat, my apologies as I had lost track of the book in mid read and just finished it.
 
5 Star Rating  "FABULOUS!"2008-05-09
- Reviewed By User: A36AOWRCSVYNJ8
I adored this book. I also listened to the audio version which is narrated by the author. Listening to her tell her own stories cracked me up. I got to her her speak and she is as charming and funny and genuine in person as she is through her work. I highly recommend FUNNY IN FARSI as well as her new book LAUGHING WITHOUT AN ACCENT!
 
5 Star Rating  "Moving and funny"2008-03-05
- Reviewed By hdsdb
Firoozeh Dumas (a frequent contributor to NPR) has written a truly funny account of her family's emigration from Iran to the United States. The humor is universal, coming out of family stories and rich real-life characters. No matter what culture you're from, this book will make you laugh out loud. Dumas's original voice and quirky world view stands out. Enjoy!
