Aria / Nassim Assefi. by Assefi, Nassim. Harcourt, c2007. Call #: FICTION ASS Subjects Iranian American women -- Fiction.   Oncologists -- Fiction.   Mothers and daughters -- Fiction.   Daughters -- Death -- Fiction.   Parental grief -- Fiction.   Bereavement -- Fiction.   Women travelers -- Fiction.   Consolation -- Fiction. ISBN:  9780151012930 0151012938 Edition:  1st ed. Description:  258 p. ; 22 cm. Summary:  "Jasmine is a cancer specialist and single mother in Seattle, long estranged from her Iranian parents and heritage. When faced with the sudden accidental death of Aria, her five-year-old daughter, she finds little solace in the healing advice she’s prescribed to her patients and their families. Lacking spiritual scaffolding or comforting rituals to cope, Jasmine buys a one-way ticket around the world. Along the way she writes letters: to her three greatest loves, all now dead, and to her devoted friends who encourage her to return home. This deeply spiritual novel is the record of Jasmine’s journey inward and a moving celebration of the fundamental elements of life: of planting maize in Guatemala, of silent meditation in the mountains of Tibet, and of the rituals of grieving in Iran. It is only when Jasmine, this modern American woman, connects with her ancient heritage that she can finally heal."--Publisher. Genre:  Psychological fiction.
