Description
City of Lies: Love, Sex, Death and the Search for Truth in Tehran is a deeply researched and compelling portrait of life in Iran under one of its most repressive regimes.
Based on extensive interviews with eight individuals from across Iranian society, this book reveals the complexities and contradictions of living, loving and surviving in a place where survival depends on subterfuge. From mullahs to prostitutes, surgeons to drug kingpins, the lives of ordinary people are forced to lead extraordinary ones.
With gripping insight into the inner workings of Iranian society, City of Lies is a timely and beautifully written exploration of a country that remains largely unknown to the West.
