"A book of great economy and power...with vivid imagery, a
breathless way of writing that carries the reader along, and a
supreme sense of the absurd." —New Republic
"Like Sir Richard Butron, Evelyn Waugh and Mungo Park,
[Kapuscinski] makes literature out of journalism." —Newsweek
"Insightful and important.... A readable, timely and valuable
contribution to the understanding of the revolutionary forces at
work in Iran.... The reader almost becomes a participant." —The New
York Times Book Review
"A supercharged particle of a book." —Los Angeles Times
