This has been on my to-read for years, and of course if I don’t get around to it now, I’m being irresponsible. The preface is from 2008, but I’d have believed you if you told me it was written last week.

I've been putting this off for so long because it takes me ages to get through academic books even when I like them, but to my surprise, this isn't academic at all—we're talking an eighth-grade reading level. Which is good for accessibility, but TBH I was hoping for more background: for example, explain how the government functions, that the Shah can just revoke the PM's status.

Tea and Spite I know I read this when it was published, but damn if I can remember even one word of it. I may have to pick it up again.
