Tried to learn more about Iran, only became more confused

[Rhyfelwyr]

I'm stating this as a thought rather than an argument - but maybe all this talk about a Westernized pre-Revolution Iran is based on a a pretty narrow view of the country. The culture in Tehran might not have been very representative of Iran as a whole. Certainly, if somebody is going to write an autobiography for a Western audience, it's going to be a well-off, Tehran-raised, foreign-educated individual like Satrapi, and not some conservative goat-herder.
