Revolutionary Ride: On the Road in Search of the Real Iran

Revolutionary Ride: On the Road in Search of the Real Iran by Lois Pryce
English | January 12th, 2017 | ASIN: B01IIF74GQ, ISBN: 1857886577 | 304 pages | EPUB | 2.31 MB

Intrigued, Lois decides to ignore the official warnings against travel (and the warnings of her friends and family) and set off alone on a 3,000 mile ride from Tabriz to Shiraz, to try to uncover the heart of this most complex and incongruous country. Along the way, she meets carpet sellers and drug addicts, war veterans and housewives, doctors and teachers - people living ordinary lives under the rule of an extraordinarily strict Islamic government.

Revolutionary Ride is the story of a people and a country. Religious and hedonistic, practical and poetic, modern and rooted in tradition - and with a wild sense of humour and appreciation of beauty despite the comparative lack of freedom - this is real contemporary Iran.
