Minoui, an award-winning Middle East correspondent for Le Figaro, was born in France to a French mother and an Iranian father. When her grandfather died in 1998, she decided to visit Iran in his memory. She stayed for ten years. In this moving and insightful book, framed as a letter to her grandfather, she recounts her experience over the course of that decade. It was time of great changes, both for her and for the country. Her account includes getting to know her religious grandmother, making friends, learning Persian, and training to become a journalist, as well as her exposure to Iran’s strict moral codes, the protests and burst of hope for change, her interrogation by the police, and more. With every new event, Minoui’s love for and understanding of Iran deepened.
Minoui will be in conversation with Sonia Dridi, Washington correspondent for France 24.
This event is presented in partnership with the French Embassy.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.
