I receive a number of search hits from people who look for my name in connection with Azadeh Moaveni and her book Honeymoon in Tehran. I also receive occasional questions. While it is true that my name is mentioned in that book, I wish to distance myself from Azadeh Moaveni and her book Honeymoon in Tehran. Those who know me more closely know that I never read that book with the exception of two paragraphs in the pre-publication phase.
