To my surprise (especially with this being a genre - unjust imprisonment in Iran - that I've long been drawn to), this was dry and uninteresting. In stark contrast to the promise on the cover ("a deep dive into a complex and egregiously misunderstood country"), I found it barely skimmed the surface of what was going on, instead focusing much more simply on how frustrated Rezaian was at being imprisoned. Despite that focus, there was very little real introspection. His frustration is understandable, of course, but I didn't need to read a book to know that. Other books in this genre are much more worth the time - authors Maziar Bahari, Shirin Ebadi, and Roxana Saberi come to mind.
