À ses pieds, un tapis cuivré couvrait le sol, parsemé des pétales de rose rouges, et de quelques feuilles aux teintes flamboyantes. Elle repensa aux mosaïques étincelantes sur les immeubles, au sud de Téhéran, le bleu turquoise dans les bassins de carpes koï partout dans la ville, les tapis colorés savamment tissées dans les maisons et les boutiques. Les piles de safran, de curcuma et de sumac au souk, tout comme les motifs kaléidoscopiques des parterres, dans les parcs. Depuis que sa famille, originaire de Téhéran, s'est installée à New York, Mina s'est parfaitement accoutumée à ce nouveau mode de vie et rêve de peindre sa vie en mille couleurs. Mais sa mère, Darya, nourrit de tout autres rêves pour sa fille : lui trouver le parfait mari irano-américain. Au carrefour de deux cultures, mère et filles ont bien souvent trop de mal à se comprendre. Elles décident alors de s'embarquer pour un voyage en Iran, espérant ainsi renouer avec leurs origines et se rapprocher.

Ensemble, elles apprennent à cuisiner, explorent les allées bigarrées du grand bazar et rêvent de devenir des « lionnes », fortes et libres.

Leurs retrouvailles, des années plus tard, viennent de nouveau bouleverser leur existence et réveiller leurs ambitions communes.

Prevention of Myocardial Infarction

Autor: Joann E. Manson

Número de Páginas: 592

Coronary heart disease remains the leading cause of death in both men and women in most industrialized countries. Yet it is largely preventable, and health care providers can acquire the skills to help their patients reduce their risks substantially. Traditional risk factors such as cigarette smoking, hypercholesterolimia, hypertension, sedentary lifestyle, obesity and glucose intolerance explain a major proportion of coronary events. Recent evidence also suggests important adjunctive roles for hormone replacement therapy in postmenopausal women, and aspirin prophlaxis in individuals at high risk of a first myocardial infarction. Emerging evidence indicates an important role for diet in the prevention of heart disease. Although the importance of lifestyle and behavioral modifications may well be known among physicians and other health-care providers, the implementation of this knowledge has been limited. One reason is that the information supporting the value, feasibility and cost-effectiveness of risk-reduction strategies has not been previously synthesized and made widely available to health-care providers in office and community settings. Prevention of Myocardial Infarction...

Un marito all'ora del tè

Autor: Marjan Kamali

Número de Páginas: 248

Istruito, di buona famiglia, ottimo lavoro, sana e robusta costituzione, denti perfetti. Iraniano doc, naturalmente. Il regalo ideale per il compleanno di Mina. Darya è elettrizzata: ne è certa, dopo tanti inutili tentativi, questo è il marito giusto per sua figlia, e non vede l’ora che i due si incontrino per il tè della domenica pomeriggio. Ma a venticinque anni, la maggior parte dei quali vissuti a New York, Mina ha in mente tutto fuorché un matrimonio combinato. Il suo sogno è diventare un’artista underground, e non ha nessuna intenzione di cedere alle insistenze materne. Il destino però sta per giocare un brutto tiro anche alla tradizionalista Darya: da sempre ossessionata dal pallino della matematica, inizia a frequentare un corso serale che oltre a equazioni e fogli Excel porterà nella sua vita una variabile completamente imprevista... In bilico tra le mille luci di New York e la nostalgia per il paese di origine, madre e figlia intraprenderanno un viaggio in Iran, alla ricerca di qualcosa che solo quella terra può regalare.Una commedia spiritosa, romantica e illuminante sugli incroci e i cortocircuiti tra due culture molto, ma molto diverse.
