Frau Doctor Heller is Marjane’s fourth and final landlord in Vienna. Both Marjane and Marjane’s mother laugh about Frau Doctor Heller behind her back, as Frau Doctor Heller looks vaguely like a horse and makes bad tea that tastes like horse urine. Marjane finds that living with her is wonderful for a while, as her villa is beautiful. However, Frau Doctor Heller ultimately turns out to be racist and mean. She doesn’t think it’s a problem that her dog poops on Marjane’s bed and eventually accuses Marjane of theft and prostitution. Fed up, Marjane walks out and lives on the streets. When Marjane eventually returns for her belongings in preparation for her return to Iran, Frau Doctor Heller won’t return many of Marjane’s things—she insists on keeping them as payment for Marjane’s supposed theft of a brooch.
