Book Self Description
Compiled and Edited by Michael C. Hillmann This anthology of sixteen representative stories and essays by Jalal Al-e Ahmad presents an Iraninan view of Iranian society by a prominent contemporary writer as well equipped as any other post-World War II Iranian intellectual to describe and analyse that society. This volume depicts Iranian society essentially through sketches of scenes and events through the eyes of individuals involved in everyday affairs. The selections presented are comprehensive and reflective of important social issues.
