“Prisoner” is more than just a memoir that reads like a thriller. It’s also an intimate family history, an anguished love letter to an ancient and broken homeland, and a spirited defense of journalism and truth at a time when both are under attack almost everywhere. - Michael J. Totten for The New York Times Book Review

Attention The George Washington University students:
Iranian-American journalist Jason Rezaian will be on campus next Wednesday, January 23, 2019 to discuss his new book PRISONER with School of Media & Public Affairs (SMPA) at The George Washington University Director Frank Sesno.

Do not snooze on this opportunity -->
