Iran has more web diarists than most other countries and the internet offers its young bloggers the fleeting freedom, not available elsewhere, to express opinions, debate politics, tell stories and share jokes.

For the first time in the West, We are Iran allows us to eavesdrop on these cyber-conversations and to hear the voices – fierce, fearless, optimistic, witty, moving – that neither the hawks in the US Defense Department nor the repressive ayatollahs wish to be heard. Together, these eye-opening bulletins form a unique composite picture of what it is really like to live, work, love and blog in Iran today.
