Some books exist to entertain. Others are meant to educate. And then there are those rare texts that make the reader feel like an accomplice-not to a crime, but to an act of understanding. The Iranian Diary belongs to this rare breed. The cycle comprises three novellas-Isfahan, Shiraz, and Fordo-which must be read in that precise order, even though Shiraz is chronologically a prequel. This is no authorial whim, but a deliberate architectural choice: each subsequent story subverts your understanding of the last, much like flipping an hourglass only to discover that the sand had been flowing the wrong way all along
