Americans are not often exposed to anything more from Iran than crazy ayatollahs shouting angry diatribes against the West, so this is an important book that provides a more realistic view of what life is really like in Iran and how people are attempting to live normal lives against the backdrop of a violent religious police, the continual repression of women, a corrupt and ineffectual government as well as all the splendors, culture, family ties and stumbles towards modernism that makes up the sum of Iran.</p> Mon, 11 Sep 2006 12:29:00 -0700 urn:uuid:8d459084-e15b-40f9-b3fa-ea89bf233aa2 Max Dunn http://blog.maxdunn.com/articles/2006/09/11/lipstick-jihad Books and Movies <p>hi!, i know it&#8217;s a long time since you posted this, but i was just wondering if you can give me chapter summary of Lipstick jihad.
