Description for Prisoner: My 544 Days in an Iranian Prison?Solitary Confinement, a Sham Trial, High-Stakes Diplomacy, and the Extraordinary Efforts It Took to Get Me Out
Review �A deeply personal account of one journalist�s determination to�find and report the truth, his fervent commitment to a free press, and his even more profound love for the family from whom he was separated.� (John F. Kerry, 68th Secretary of State)�An important story. Harrowing, and suspenseful, yes�but it�s also a deep dive into a complex and egregiously misunderstood country with two very different faces. There is no better time to know more about Iran�and Jason Rezaian has seen both of those faces.� (Anthony Bourdain)�Reading this book opened my eyes to how unfairly he had been treated by the Iranian government and how love, humor and resilience got him through.�This book is a reminder of the people who sacrifice their freedoms and their lives to bring us the truth.� (Maz Jobrani) Read more From the Back Cover The dramatic memoir of the journalist who was held hostage in a high-security prison in Tehran for eighteen months and whose release�which almost didn�t happen�became a part of the Iran nuclear deal.In July 2014, Washington Post Tehran bureau chief Jason Rezaian was arrested by Iranian police, accused of spying for America. The charges were absurd.�Rezaian�s reporting was a mix of human interest stories and political analysis. He had even served as a guide for Anthony Bourdain�s�Parts Unknown. Initially, Rezaian thought the whole thing was a terrible misunderstanding, but soon realized that it was much more dire as it became an eighteen-month prison stint with impossibly high diplomatic stakes.�While in prison, Rezaian had tireless advocates working on his behalf. His brother lobbied political heavyweights, including John Kerry and Barack Obama, and started a social media campaign�#FreeJason�while Jason�s wife navigated the red tape of the Iranian security apparatus, all while the courts used Rezaian as a bargaining chip in negotiations for the Iran nuclear deal.In Prisoner, Rezaian writes of his exhausting interrogations and farcical trial.�He also reflects on his idyllic childhood in Northern California and his bond with his Iranian father, a rug merchant; how his teacher Christopher Hitchens inspired him to pursue journalism; and his life-changing decision to move to Tehran, where his career took off and he met his wife.Written with wit, humor, and grace,�Prisoner brings to life a fascinating, maddening culture in all its complexity.
