Raha Nik-Andish, an Iranian writer living in Tehran, has risked his life to give the world an account of survival under the U.S. and Israel’s bombs. We owe it to him to listen.

The Voice of an Ordinary Iranian

Tehran Diaries: Dispatches from Iran Under Siege, published this July by OR Books, carries weight disproportionate to its small size. The book itself is just 90 pages long, and they’re small pages; you can easily slip it into a jeans pocket, and you can read the whole volume in an afternoon. But there is a reason the author, Raha Nik-Andish, has chosen brevity: he knows that on any given day, he may be killed by a U.S. bomb or drone. For him, there is no time to waste.
