Jacob was born in Tehran in 1961, in a world that taught him early how to survive by staying quiet. The last of four children in a tightly packed apartment building filled with extended family, neighbors, and unspoken rules, Jacob learned to watch, to listen, and to hide, even from himself. But silence has its limits.

As he journeys through childhood, exile, longing, and self-discovery, Jacob must eventually face the truth he carried like a hidden fire: he is a gay man in a world that told him he couldn't be. Coming out at the age of 36 is only the beginning of a deeper reckoning with his past, his culture, his family, and the love he always knew he deserved. Piecing Jacob is a novel of memory, identity, and the quiet revolutions that shape a life.
