Azadeh Moaveni was an American reporter in Tehran in 2005 covering the rise of Ahmadinejad when the unexpected happened—she met her soul mate, fell in love, and became pregnant. Facing an uncertain future and hiding her pregnancy from the religious authorities until she could marry, Moaveni was spied upon; her phone, tapped. Shortly after giving birth, she learned that she would soon be arrested and sent to the notorious Evin prison. This is a powerful, poignant, often funny, but ultimately harrowing, story about a young woman facing her future in a very dangerous place.
'Moaveni has a journalist’s eye for struggle and memoirist’s knack for finding meaning in her own internal conflicts.'
