A popular writer of Iranian origin is going through difficult times. Her career, to which she has dedicated her entire life and for which she has given up a lot, is under threat. She turns to books for support - she decides to sort through her home library, arrange the books in alphabetical order and read those she has never read. The heroine talks to them as if they were real people - having caught on to one or another thought, she projects it onto the surrounding reality, political events, her personal life: the death of her mother, divorce from her husband, her son's illness. Her thoughts are filled with memories of her youth - emancipation at 16, difficult relationships with her parents, the search for her place in the world. This book is essentially a declaration of love for literature: a novel, a diary, an essay and an exploration of herself all rolled into one.
