Product description

The book / Arabia in Iran, Iranians as we have not known them, by the author / Nada Al-Azheri, a journalistic testimony close to the heart of Iranian society away from official political discourse. The author writes through her four years living in Tehran, to record the details of the daily life of ordinary Iranians: their customs, fears, dreams, and their way of dealing with religion, politics, and art. She moves between stories of taxi drivers, intellectuals, and women, in an attempt to explore the spirit of a society intertwined between tradition and modernity, presenting a warm and vibrant human picture that breaks the prevailing stereotypes, and answers the question: how do people there think, feel, and "appear"?
