Insights from Chapter 1
#1
I fondly remember the seasons in Kabul: when the buttercups and lilies bloomed, it meant spring had arrived. The fruit trees in our orchard would ripen soon, and I’d play soccer with my friends.
#2
My childhood was filled with fun and friendship. I was the second youngest of eight children, and we lived in a wealthy Kabul neighborhood. I grew up during one of the most prosperous periods in the history of Afghanistan.
#3
Shahnaz was the sister of my best friend, Zia, and she would read us stories about women falling in love with noble men. I wanted to be like her and know about this world beyond the white stuccoed walls of our compound.
#4
My mother, Shahnaz, married my father, Padar, who was also a poet. They had a suitor named Saleem Rodwal, who was a pilot in the Afghan military. I never understood what my parents did all day, but I liked to think they were speaking poetry to each other.
#5
The engagement party was the biggest event Padar had ever thrown. It was a celebration of great happiness and joy for everyone. The entire neighborhood came to celebrate.
#6
At the wedding, I heard my mother’s cousins laugh nervously as they observed the Parchamis stroll up to the house. I turned and saw my mother’s cousin Padar embracing someone with his warm salaam.

My mother, Miriam Siddiqui, was married to my father, Padar, in 1956. She was seventeen and just finishing high school when they got married. She knew that she would have to learn to love her husband over time.
