The Rug Merchant Overviews
A sparkling debut novel about an unlikely romance between an Iranian immigrant and an American college student

Isolated and far from his native Iran, Ushman Khan has worked hard to build a wealthy, reliable clientele for his wares: exquisite hand-woven rugs from his home city of Tabriz. With perfect rectitude, he caters to clients like New York's Upper East Side grand dame Mrs. Roberts, who plies him for stories about his exotic origins and culture to feed her own imagination. But like many immigrants, he's living only half a life. He dreams of the day his beloved wife, Farak, will be able to join him in New York and complete his vision of the American dream. But when she tells him that she is leaving him for another man, Ushman is shattered. He begins to wander aimlessly through the terminals of JFK Airport, imagining a now-impossible reunion with Farak. Unexpectedly, he meets Stella, a Barnard College student who has just bade farewell to her parents en route for an Italian vacation. After Stella, isolated in her own way, finds herself at Ushman's Manhattan store, they embark on an improbable and powerful romance. Together this American girl from the Deep South and the Iranian aesthete form a tender bond that awakens them both to the possibility of joy in a world full of tragedy.

The Rug Merchant is an inspiring, character-rich tale about shaking free from disappointment and finding connection and acceptance in whatever form they appear. And in a novel of many extraordinary pleasures, Ushman Khan stands as one of the great characters in recent fiction..../ The Rug Merchant / Kashan Rug

An unenjoyable Persian carpet ride : The Rug Merchant


A fortyish rug merchant, having spent three long, lonely years in America while his miscarriage-prone wife remained in Iran to care for his mother and locate his stock, learns that his wife has moved on without him. When he meets a young American girl (19 years old and described as "half his age") his sad world transforms.

Although the wordplay involving the American-idiomatically-challenged immigrant is really good, the point of the story is unclear. In fact, it seems that there is no point. Among the incomprehensible: discussions of three suicides and/or attempted suicides; two incidences of a certain type of intimate contact; an incident involving an overheard appropriate or inappropriate conversation between a father and young daughter in a bathroom stall; the pure state of the young love interest, as well as her desire to become otherwise with with the help of a fatherly foreigner (one with revulsion for his own mother, whose existence only inconveniences him in the form of phone calls and letters); a bitter, hate-spewing African man; and the ending.

Except for the great cross lingual conversational issues between the American teenager and her Iranian boyfriend, the story just plain senseless. House of Sand and Fog by Albert Dubus is a better read.
