Darius doesn’t think he’ll ever be enough, in America or in Iran. Hilarious and heartbreaking, this unforgettable debut introduces a brilliant new voice in contemporary YA.Winner of the William C. Morris Debut Award.Heartfelt, tender, and so utterly real. Id live in this book forever if I could. (Becky Albertalli, award-winningauthor of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda)Darius Kellner speaks better Klingon than Farsi, and he knows more about Hobbit social cues than Persian ones. Hes a Fractional Persian – half, his moms side – and his first-ever trip to Iran is about to change his life.Darius has never really fit in at home, and hes sure things are going to be the same in Iran. His clinical depression doesnt exactly help matters, and trying to explain his medication to his grandparents only makes things harder. Then Darius meets Sohrab, the boy next door, and everything changes. Soon, theyre spending their days together, playing soccer, eating faludeh, and talking for hours on a secret rooftop overlooking the citys skyline. Sohrab calls him Darioush – the original Persian version of his name – and Darius has never felt more like himself than he does now that hes Darioush to Sohrab.Adib Khorrams brilliant debut is for anyone whos ever felt not good enough – then met a friend who makes them feel so much better than okay.
