Hello and welcome to my website!


New Title!
In response to requests from my readers, I have much more information on this site, including a section for educators with a discussion guide that can also be used by book clubs. There are also a couple of humor sections from the New York Times and a piece about reluctant readers.

And of course a big thank you to all the readers out there in the United States, in Iran, and in other countries who have emailed me with your kind words. Thank you! Merci! Gracias! Dank! Tak! Grazie! Arigato!

Praise for Laughing Without an Accent

"These stories, like everything Firoozeh Dumas writes, are charming, highly amusing vignettes of family life. Dumas is one of those rare people--a natually gifted storyteller."
— Alexander McCall Smith

For all you NPR listeners, tune in to Weekend Edition on Saturday, Nov. 3. I have a piece about me and Kathryn Koob, the former hostage in Iran. I think you will agree with me that she is pretty amazing.

In case you miss it,  you can go to www.npr.org, search for my name and listen anytime after Nov. 3.
