adam_text | Both a love story and a reporter s first draft of history,
Honeymoon in Tehran is a stirring, trenchant, and deeply
personal chronicle of two years in the maelstrom of
Iranian life.
In
2005,
Azadeh Moaveni, longtime Middle East corre¬
spondent for Time magazine, returns to Iran to cover the rise of
President
Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad. As she documents the fire¬
brand leader s troublesome entry onto the world stage, Moaveni
richly portrays a society too often caricatured as the heartland
of militant Islam. Living and working in Tehran, she finds a
nation that openly yearns for freedom and contact with the
West but whose economic grievances and nationalist spirit find
a temporary outlet in Ahmadinejad s strident pronouncements.
Mingling with underground musicians, race car drivers, young
radicals, and scholars, she explores the cultural identity crisis
and class frustration that pits Iran s next generation against the
Islamic system.
And then the unexpected happens: Azadeh falls in love
with a young Iranian man and decides to get married and start
a family in Tehran. Suddenly, she finds herself navigating an
altogether different side of Iranian life. Preparing to be wed by
a mullah, she sits in on a government marriage prep class where
young couples are instructed to enjoy sex. She visits Tehran s
bridal bazaar and finds that the Iranian wedding has become
an outrageously lavish
—
though often still gender-segregated
—
production. When she becomes pregnant, she must prepare to
give birth in an Iranian hospital, at the same time observing her
friends struggles with their young children, who must learn to
say one thing at home and another at school.
Despite her busy schedule as a wife and mother, Azadeh
continues to report for Time on Iran s nuclear standoff with
the West and Iranians dissatisfaction with Ahmadinejad s
heavy-handed rule. But as women are arrested on the street
for immodest dress and the authorities unleash a campaign
of intimidation against journalists, the country s dark side
reemerges. This fundamentalist turn, along with the chilling
presence of Mr. X, the government agent assigned to mind
her every step, forces Azadeh to make the hard decision that her
family s future lies outside Iran.
Powerful and poignant, fascinating and humorous, Honey¬
moon in Tehran is the harrowing story of a young woman s tenu¬
ous life in a country she thought she could change.
AZADEH MOAVENIisthe author of Lipstick
Jihad and the co-author, with Nobel Peace Prize laureate Shirin
Ebadi,
of Iran Awakening. She has lived and reported through¬
out the Middle East, and speaks both
Farsi
and Arabic fluently.
As one of the few American correspondents allowed to work
continuously in Iran since
1999,
she has reported widely on
youth culture, women s rights, and Islamic reform for Time, The
New York Times Book Review, The Washington Post, NPR, and
the Los Angeles Times. Currently a Time magazine contributing
writer on Iran and the Middle East, she lives with her husband
and son in London.
