Title: The Long Goodbye
Review: Farah's book is slow moving in most parts. She recounts her meeting of the Shah, her life of public works and dress-up (via old pictures - I agree with a previous reviewer that this is the highlight of this boring book), and their ignominious ouster. Farah lacks the insight to see that the Shah's fate and her fate were largely of their own doing. They had a choice to be better than that, but his regime was brutal, and lacked any sort of independent justice system. The backlash was swift and brutal when it came, but they created the atmosphere for it to happen.My main problem with this book isn't Farah's lack of mental flexibility, her total lack of balance, or her omission of key facts (that would have made her family look very bad, indeed), rather my major complaint is that this book is stultifying.
