In The Walled Gardens by Anahita Firouz

I don't remember reading an unfavorable review on this community, but here's one.

In the Walled Garden is probably considered to be "literary" which may be why I found it boring. The plot - what I could find of it, I gave up five chapters in - seems to center around a childhood love hindered by class issues, and the arrest of other characters prior to the rise of Ayatollah Khomeini in the late 1970s in Iran. The characters didn't interest me, the story didn't compel me to finish.

Can't recommend this one.
