Recently I read a book titled Injustice, Ignorance and Purgatory: Whispers and Cries in the Clash of Cultures written by Mohammad Ghaed.
Ghaed is an Iranian professional journalist and he’s worked in some famous papers and magazines like Ayandeghan Daily, Kayhan, Ketab-e-Jomeh, Payam-e-Emrooz and some others before and after Revolution in 1973.
As I know he is the first Iranian thinker who emphasized on sub-cultures in current Iran and he’s analyzed events in Iran, based on this concept.
In addition, Ghaed knows no border between literature, politics, economics and any other fields. In fact, he has a critical and especially multilateral and approach to the events in current Iran.
I think this book is useful for foreigners who study Iranian culture. I wish it would translate in English some day.
