“The Life Impossible” at Iranian bookstores

TEHRAN-A Persian translation of English author and journalist Matt Haig’s book “The Life Impossible” has recently been published by Milkan Publications in Tehran.
The book has been translated into Persian by Mahsa Sabaghi.
“The Life Impossible” tells the story of retired math teacher Grace Winters, who receives a surprising inheritance: a dilapidated house on the Mediterranean island of Ibiza from a long-lost friend. Intrigued, and with nothing holding her back, Grace embarks on a journey to the island with only a one-way ticket and no plan.
In the vibrant landscape of Ibiza, Grace delves into the mystery surrounding her friend's life and death. What she discovers is far more extraordinary and unexpected than she could have imagined. To fully embrace this astonishing reality, however, Grace must confront and reconcile with her own past.
"The Life Impossible" is a tale brimming with curiosity and adventure. It explores themes of hope, self-discovery, and the profound impact of starting anew in an unexpected place.
