Finally I had some free time to read "Shah of Shahs" by Ryszard Kapuściński. Great book. Two important conlusions are now on my mind, and I have to note them down in case they fly away, pushed out by my everyday responsibilities and things-to-do:
1. I have to read more books by Kapuściński, last time I read him was I think 3 years ago, before my XXth century literature exam, and it was just "The Emperor". I forgot how amazingly interesting are his books and how much pleasure and knowledge brings reading them... (unfortunately he was waiting too long for his Nobel Prize...)
2. I have to read more about Iran, as the history, political, social and cultural changes in this country, the whole complex process of huge transformations is even more interesting than I expected...
Here's some basic information about Ryszard Kapuściński:
