Customer Reviews and Description
I thought the title flip and shallow compared to the serious subject matter, but after some consideration I think it is an apt title. Ms. Moaveni writes a compelling story, but as other reviewers have pointed out, it is an elitist, upper middle class point of view of Iranian culture and politics. I also lived in Iran during the Shah's reign. I also had a housekeeper that cooked too much so as to have food to take home to her family. Ms. Moaveni thought her servant was selfish.

I rated this book a five because while you read it makes you relize that you are so lucky you weren't born in those very tragic times.It made me think about how easy I, and others have it.I love this book because it teaches me about other peoples lives and how hard it was for them.I also think that it was well written and easy to understand.I'm not positive that you will like this book because of how sad and frightning the tale is, but if you are anything like me you will have your face stuck in a book 'till your done.

Customer Reviews and Description
This book was purchased for my son who is interested in WWII planes and fliers, and since I was a civilian during WWII and lived through that era, this book was definitely to be read (especially after watching Life and Times on our local KCET station and the granddaughter was interviewed regarding this book). Both of us enjoyed reading the life of this remarkable man and it was a must for his growing library.
