...letters, but beyond existing on the page to the reader at hand (which is to say Christensen’s) they are themselves written by one another in turn, defined as characters within each others’ dramas.

Christensen’s book collapses the so-called fact and fiction that separate the characters’ interior and exterior spaces. Like Sampel and Azorno, the five women—four of them claiming to be lovers of the author/protagonist...

Goldstone has ties to Israel and a reputation for honest exploration of politically sensitive subjects built in the course of his work at the head of the his country...
...authorities know that street demonstrations could easily flare up again, considering that some half-dozen universities crowd Enqelab (Revolution) Boulevard alone, site of a millions-strong silent march in June. But can the students dent the hard-liners' seemingly armored position of power? New York University professor Bruce Bueno de Mesquita, author of a new book, The Predictioneer's Game, that argues that pressure by student demonstrators this summer has already led to concessions by the regime, predicts that the influence of students will rise sharply this month to a level that will rival that of Khamenei's.
