Inhaltsangabe
The grandson of an eminent ayatollah and the son of an Iranian diplomat, Hooman Majd is now an American citizen -- 100 percent Iranian and 100 percent American. Combining an insider's knowledge of how Iran works with a remarkable ability to explain its history and its quirks to Western readers, he paints a portrait of a country that is fiercely proud of its Persian heritage, mystified by its outsider status, and scornful of the idea that the U.S. can dictate how it should interact with the community of nations.
With wit, and style HOOMAN MAJD reveals the paradoxes of the Iranian character, which have baffled Americans. With unforgettable portraits of Iranians, from government figures to women cab drivers to reform-minded Ayatollahs, Majd brings to life a country that is deeply religious yet highly cosmopolitan, authoritarian yet with democratic and reformist traditions.
