In a Persian Mirror Images of the West and Westerners in Iranian Fiction

"This study of Iranian images of the West offers many surprising discoveries for Western readers, not least of which is the fact that Iranians have often found Westerners to be as enigmatic and incomprehensible as we have believed them to be. And as the Iranian writers describe our alien culture, they naturally offer glimpses into their own worldviews that can only increase Western understanding of their culture."--BOOK JACKET.
