A simple clerical error sets off a devastating collision between two people seeking a second chance. When Kathy, a recovering addict, is wrongfully evicted from her small California bungalow, it’s auctioned to Colonel Behrani, a proud Iranian immigrant trying to secure a future for his family. What begins as a property dispute becomes a powerful exploration of identity, dignity, and the American Dream, spiraling into obsession and tragedy.
Told with empathy and razor-sharp insight, House of Sand and Fog is a literary psychological drama that examines what happens when good people are pushed too far.
 
💔 Why You’ll Love It
Beautifully written literary fiction with real emotional depth.
Explores cultural displacement, class tension, and moral ambiguity.
Both characters are flawed and sympathetic, making it perfect for fans of character-driven drama.
The basis for the critically acclaimed film adaptation starring Jennifer Connelly and Ben Kingsley.
A stunning reminder that the American Dream can become a nightmare.
