Anahita is a busy, busy, busy. She helps the dye-master find plants for vibrant dyes, helps her mother weave the Persian carpets that Iran is famous for, and helps her father tend the sheep which her tribe herds from place to place in the spring, finding the best grass to graze on. She also works hard for the success of a clothing drive she originated at the local mosque, so poorer people don’t have to buy cloth or weave every single garment for every family member. Somehow, she also finds time to ask a few controversial questions, and everyone in the tribe knows that Anahita is a strong minded young woman.

What can a strong minded girl do when her father says she is old enough to think of marriage? In her tribe, these things are arranged between two fathers. Anahita thinks of all the eligible young men in her tribe, and doesn’t really feel a spark for any of them. Her mother suggests that her father’s apprentice actually wanted to work for him in particular so that he’s have time to spend with Anahita, who often helped her father. Ridiculous –Anahita has known the fellow forever, and thinks of him as a brother. Besides, she’s a very smart and willful young woman, and wants to marry a man who understands that– and takes pride in it.

How can she take control over something she has no control over? How can a modest young woman find a man to suit her personality?
