The Train on Which We Hopped

Personal Essay Collection

In this book, Ali Motamedi narrates how it feels to be thousands of miles away from one's motherland for the first time. He ignites his narrative by explaining the difficulty of finding a publisher in Iran while living abroad and shares the unavoidable agony of becoming emotionally biased when there is little reliable emotional support for a foreigner.From the night he first arrived in the US at Chicago O'Hare, to confronting the confusing line between respect and intimacy when using names, Motamedi captures the loneliness and dilemma, typical traps of social habits, aspiration, desire, and hope of an Iranian immigrant who is seeking 'home' far away from home.
