Jason Elliot (Author)
Filling a long-neglected gap in the travel writing of the region, Jason Elliot’s Mirrors of the Unseen is a rare and timely portrait of the nation descended from the world’s earliest superpower: Iran. Animated by the same spirit of exploration as its acclaimed predecessor, An Unexpected Light, and drawing on several years of independent travel and research, this thought-provoking work weaves together observations of life in contemporary Iran with history, politics, and a penetrating enquiry into the secrets of Islamic art. Generously illustrated with the author’s own sketches and photographs, Mirrors of the Unseen is a rich, sensitive, and vivid account of a country and its culture.
