In 'Journey from the Land of No,' Roya Hakakian shares her childhood and adolescence memories in Iran during the time of the Shah. This account, written with candor and intensity, narrates the growth of an intelligent and perceptive young woman seeking her own voice amidst the cultural, political, and intellectual changes of a country in transition. The author describes with sincerity and humor how the promises of a new world transform into a more intolerant reality after the 1979 revolution in Tehran, offering a moving and, at times, heartbreaking perspective of a crucial moment in Middle Eastern history.
