Shah of Shahs by Ryszard Kapuściński

2.0

Nice window into Persia/Iran. Surprising framing devices, like inspecting a series of photographs.

I liked when someone told about how poor their toys were. "The only toys of my childhood were stones. I pulled a stone with a string—I was the horse, and the stone was the Gilded Chariot of the Shah."
