'The finest example of a book made out of blogs so far: an eye-opening collage of extracts from the (roughly) 64,000 Farsi-language bloggers now at work in Iran... a vibrant portrait of a dynamic but thwarted nation' Boyd Tonkin, Independent

'Nasrin Alavi's We Are Iran is a fascinating portrait of a young generation trying to reconcile its demand for individual rights with the official ideology of political Islam' Pankaj Mishra
