"Sooni Taraporevala's picture book on the Parsis
.can steal your heart. A lovely book on a beautiful
city and some of the nicest people who live in it....
You don't have to be a Parsi to buy it."
                                                                   - Busybee

"...A lavish, unabashedly nostalgic picture book...
History is nimbly woven with personal anecdotes
and interviews in her wistful prose."
                                                                - India Today
"A book that should ideally be smudged by overuse,
not condemned to a coffee table. Tracing the... ...appearance, habits, rituals and personalities of
the Parsis for over two decades, the voluminous
volume is supplemented by informative prose..."
                                                                                -Outlook

Book Specifications

Parsis migrated to India from Persia (Iran), 1000 years ago to save their
religion. Followers of the teachings of Zarathustra, the world's first
messianic prophet, their religion is more than 3000 years old. There are
only 140,000 Zoroastrians in the world today. This book, the first of its
kind, is a portrait of the community in India - the faces and voices of a
diverse cross-section of Parsis, documented over a period of twenty
years, by an affectionate insider.
