City of Lies, Paperback

A searing, energetic portrait of Tehran, and life in one of the world's most repressive regimes, far removed from the picture of the city glimpsed in news stories, from eight protagonists from across the spectrum of Iranian society: a gun runner, an aging socialite, a porn star, an assassin, a transsexual religious policeman, and a dutiful housewife who files for divorce. Now in paperback.
