Tehran-based Peydayesh publications has recently released a Persian translation of the young adults’ novel “The Glass Children” by Swedish political scientist and writer Kristina Ohlsson. Originally published in 2013, the book has been translated into Persian by Matin Pedrami, ISNA reported.
Billie and her mother move to a new house in a small town. Musty furniture and odd belongings fill their new but dilapidated building, including two small glass figures of a boy and a girl.
The neighbors and local community are hiding something Billie does not know. Is it a secret about the house, or something about its past? Billie notices that the glass figures had moved when they were not in the house.
Soon after, a small smudge appears on a dusty table—the handprint of a small child. Billie is certain that they are being haunted. The Persian rendering of the title is printed in 215 pages.
