No American reporter has more experience covering Iran or more access to the private corners of Iranian society than Elaine Sciolino. As a correspondent for Newsweek and The New York Times she has reported on the key events of the past two decades.
In this book Sciolino takes us into the public and private spaces of Iran -- the bazaars, beauty salons, aerobic studios, courtrooms, universities, mosques and the presidential palace to capture the vitality of a society so often misunderstood by Americans.
