"In this book, Christopher de Bellaigue gives us the voices and memories of these wistful revolutionaries. Mullahs and academics, artists, traders, and mystics: the author knows them as an insider - a journalist who speaks fluent Persian and is married to an Iranian - and also as an outsider - a Westerner isolated in one of the world's most enigmatic and impenetrable societies. The result is a subtly intense revelation of the hearts and minds of the Iranian people - and what it is to live among them."--BOOK JACKET.
