While working in Iran last year, journalist Roxana Saberi was dragged from her home, detained, and arrested by intelligence agents. Saberi was accused of espionage and sentenced to eight years in Evin, Iran’s most notorious prison. After months of appeals, the charges against her were finally reduced and she returned to the U.S. Saberi breaks her silence to tell her harrowing story and also sheds light on Iran’s political regime and the current challenges facing the country.
Saberi writes movingly of her imprisonment, her trial, her ultimate release, and the faith that helped her through it. Between Two Worlds is also a deeply revealing account of this complex nation and the six years Saberi lived there. A citizen of both the United States and Iran, Saberi sheds new light on the Iranian regime's inner political workings and the restrictions to basic freedoms that have intensified since President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's victory in 2005.
