Nazila Fathi - The Lonely War

In The Lonely War, Nazila Fathi interweaves her story with that of the country she left behind, showing how Iran is locked in a battle between hardliners and reformers that dates back to the country's 1979 revolution. Drawing on over two decades of reporting and extensive interviews with both ordinary Iranians and high-level officials before and since her departure, Fathi describes Iran's awakening alongside her own, revealing how moderates are steadily retaking the country.

A longtime Iranian correspondent for the New York Times, Nazila Fathi has also reported from the country for Time and Agence France-Presse. She has been an associate at Harvard's Belfer Center at the Kennedy School of Government and has held fellowships at the Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy and the Nieman Foundation. Fathi holds an MA in Political Science and Women's Studies from the University of Toronto. She lives in Bethesda, Maryland.
