But honestly, she's running against Gerald Thomas, a rigid rule-follower whose platform includes reinstating a dress code-there's no way she can lose. And she better not, or she'll never get into NYU.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut then, a real-life international incident turns the election upside down. Iran suddenly dominates the nightly news, and her opponent seizes the opportunity to stir up anti-Iranian hysteria at school and turn the electorate against her. Her brother, Ali, is no help. He's become an outspoken advocate for Iran just as she's trying to downplay her heritage.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow, as the white lie she told snowballs into an avalanche, Jasmine is stuck between claiming her heritage or hiding it, standing by her outspoken brother or turning her back on him, winning the election or abandoning her dreams for good.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTold with biting insight and fierce humor, Susan Azim Boyer's \u003ci\u003eJasmine Zumideh Needs a Win\u003c\/i\u003e is a fresh, unforgettable story of one Iranian-American young woman's experience navigating her identity, friendship, family, her future, and a budding romance, all set against life-changing historical events with present-day relevance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eA Macmillan Audio production from Wednesday Books.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Macmillan Audio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49355926864176,"sku":"BDfww1","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/fww1-cover.jpg?v=1761000844","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-fww1","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
