Summary
"Every city has its own identity. In the same way that the identity of the people of a city influences and determines the identity of a city, the identity of a city has an impact on that of its people. In this book, the author explores the major cities of Iran that appear in Persian fiction. Within the context of Persian novels and short stories, Iranian Cities in Persian Fiction is also an examination of the historical and cultural identities of the people of such ancient cities as Isfahan, Shiraz, Tabriz, and Mashhad, in addition to other metropolises that have played important social, economic, and political roles not only in the past but also in more recent centuries, including Bushehr, Tehran, Abadan, and Ahvaz. Iranian Cities in Persian Fiction provides readers who have lived in or visited that country, both nostalgically and inquisitively, with a virtual tour of the past and present of many of those cities."--
