One finishes the book feeling sad for a people forced to battle against arbitrary and inconsistent rules, but confident that they will obtain the freedom they long for." Publisher's noteThe author of Lipstick Jihad describes her return to Iran as a reporter for Time magazine in the wake of the election of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, her marriage to an Iranian man, the repressive Iranian society and its impact, and her family's decision to leave Iran. Simultaneous. AnnotationIn 2005, American-born journalist Azadeh Moaveni traveled to Tehran, the site of her popular first book, LIPSTICK JIHAD, in order to cover the election of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for Time magazine. Her assignment took a surprising turn when she fell in love and got pregnant out of wedlock, in a land where unmarried motherhood is often violently suppressed. Meanwhile, she discovers that, amidst the advancing crises of financial inflation and political repression, much of the Iranian populace has traded in Islamic fervor for a quiet yearning for the Western lifestyles they see on satellite television. After deciding to marry her lover, Moaveni prepares to become a wife and mother in a country struggling to find a path between the often-oppressive religious traditions of the past and the questionable secular values embodied by Western capitalism. For readers of Kabul Beauty School and Funny in Farsi, the unforgettable story of a young American journalist who falls in love and starts a family in Iran.
