A "School of Laughter" where the theory of happiness and its application are taught; marriages that are entered into for a limited period of time; a lively cultural landscape with theatre, galleries, award-winning cinema films and pop music - these are all scenarios of Iran, one of the oldest cultural nations on earth, which today is primarily afflicted with the image of the "Rogue State". In their interviews with 45 Iranians, Serge Michel and Paolo Woods have uncovered how much more is hidden behind the headlines of the Western media in this country. It becomes clear how many facets make up this contradictory country, and gradually a puzzle of modern Iran emerges beyond all clichés. A new standard work, amazing, true and close to the people. Anyone who has read Michels and Woods' book will see news from Iran with different eyes in the future.
