Ali Dashti: Prison Days: Life Under Reza Shah
J. E. Knorzer
This is a collection of essays set against its political, social, and cultural background,
showing the author's growth from early orthodox religious training into a rational
democratic, and aesthetic humanism. It covers literature, history, philosophy, sociology,
politics and psychology. J.E. Knorzer's well researched and perceptively written book of
Dashti's life and times and her apt analysis of his work and his character, focusing in
particular on Prison Days, introduce this major Iranian political and literary personality
of the twentieth century to Western readers and reveal in the process some intimate
aspects of Iranian history during a turbulent period.
