#1 In 1951, Soraya was born in the village of Kupayeh, near the city of Kerman in southwestern Iran. She had come into the world on the Shah’s wedding day, and was named after his bride, Princess Soraya.

#2 When Soraya was ten, her parents took her to the city to apprentice with the arbab, the wealthy landowner. The children who apprenticed there were given food and lodging, but they received no salary. They worked fifteen hours a day and slept little.

#3 When Soraya returned to Kupayeh, she was almost a young woman: she was 13, and it was decided that she should be given in marriage to Ghorban-Ali, who was 20, in exchange for several head of cattle, a plot of land, and several rugs.

#4 The village of Chador, in Iran, was the location of the wedding ceremony. The bride was prepared by her aunt, who perfumed her and washed her completely. The bride remained silent throughout the night, and her husband spent the night with her.
