For more than a century Iran's social, political, and cultural
history has been defined by a struggle toward or away from
modernity. In this book Talatoff makes a compelling argument that,
despite revolutionary upheaval, the ideals of modernity remain
remote due to the absence of a modern notion of sexuality. He
illustrates his assertion through the life of Shahrzad, a
celebrated stage and screen actress, dancer, journalist, and
published poet who eventually became imprisoned and later homeless
in the streets of Tehran. Tracing her career along with other
pre-revolutionary women artists, Talatoff explores the relationship
between gender, sexuality, media, and modernity in Iran.
