(the correct capitalization) in 1906, president theodore roosevelt named devils tower in wyoming the first national monument.

"facing the rising sun of our new day begun

let us march on till victory is won.",

because the rising sun is a symbol of hope.

the book's theme is the moral ambiguity of the iranian revolution, history of middle eastern relations and the process of growing up during war. it sheds light on the stereotypical views of middle eastern culture and religion.

the author explicitly portrays the issues of class disparities and racism continously throught the whole novel.

the relationship between parents and childrens, the abandonment of faith, modernity vs fundamentalism and class conflict are the 4 main panels that this novel englobes.

hope this , if you would like me to be more specific about a specific excerpt let me know : )
