Everything happens for the first time.
Some things are instantly forgotten, others remain etched in memory.
I especially remember my first snow.

A grandmother tells her granddaughter an ancient Persian legend: Nane Sarma lives high above the clouds and every year awaits the man she has heard so much about. His name was Nowruz, and he never came to town without a reason—Nowruz brought with him warmth and the spirit of spring. While awaiting her guest, Nane Sarma tidies up her house and garden, and then snow and rain fall. Exhausted, she falls asleep, and when Nowruz finally arrives at her home, he finds Nane in a deep sleep...

This story about the cyclical nature of time and the changing seasons, poetically told by Elham Asadi and elegantly illustrated with monotypes by Sylvie Belleau, is a true work of art.
