Iran: Make Love not War: A Maverick Iranian Way

Paperback (A Maverick Traveller Ltd Aug. 11, 2019)
Iran is completely different to the cartoon-like image portrayed in the West, of a land of religious fanatics chanting Death to America. In reality it's a fabulous ancient civilisation and a country that's full of intelligent young people. This book, Iran: Make Love not War is an impression of Iran, gleaned from a three-week visit in 2018. I visited Tabriz, Teheran, Isfahan, Shiraz, the ancient capital of Persepolis, royal graves and the desert city of Yazd. I saw smugglers and prostitutes whose practice was sanctioned as a temporary marriage by clerics; the most fabulous mosques and palaces anywhere; one of the first planned cities at Isfahan; Shiraz, the abode of poets and the stained glass mosque of Nasir-ol-Molk; and much more.
