"Living in Hell is a moving, even haunting account of the life of a Muslim woman in Islamic Iran under the oppressive rule of ruthless mullahs. The reader encounters the Islamic revolution, the American hostage crisis, and devastating eight year Iran/Iraq war through the eyes of a woman simultaneously dealing with personal abuse within a dysfunctional, polygamous family. Her book offers a valuable contrast between the true Islam of sensitive souls like Ghazal, and the flawed and militant theocracy enforced by the harsh government of Iran. Although her outspokenness against the degrading treatment of women was not welcome in her society, such outspokenness has given her a sense of mission, to try and salvage the glorious Persian culture which has been so harmed by the Mullahs she assails. Living in Hell is a must read for everyone seeking to understand the Islamic world and its effects on a post- 9/11 world. "
