Book Reviews of Lipstick Jihad: A Memoir of Growing up Iranian in America and American in Iran
Book Review: A life worth reading about. . . . . . .
Summary: 5 Stars
Azadeh provides a great portrayal of her life in the US and Iran. She shares her experience with her relatives in Iran, immediate family members, friends, and co-workers. The political climate changes that she went through as a journalist in Iran. Pg 117 illustrates how dangerous it was for her to be a journalist by occupation while being in Iran. I liked how she identified with both countries. Overall, it is a great book and it provided a glimspe of how some Iranians lived in Iran during her stay there.
