About this ebook
Partly inspired by Ferdowsi's epic story of Bijan and Manijeh, 'Old Shemiran Road' takes the reader to revolutionary Tehran. When the final months of the Shah's reign give way to a period of tumultuous upheavals, Iran's ruthless new leaders move quickly to fortify the foundations for their rule of terror.
As the world around them turns upside down, Manijeh, a beautiful Persian woman, and Ben, a naïve Western man, are drawn together by love and desire. But their romance is cut short when they are cruelly separated by family ties and cultural differences. Just when all seems lost, violent revolution and the political betrayals that followed it provide a chance for Ben and Manijeh to try again.
