A Good Place to Die by James Buchan
John Pitt, drop-out from the University of Bedford, has arrived in Iran, as a naive English teacher. It is 1974 and Iran is changing, with the forces of religious conservatism and of liberal reform at collision point. Amidst all this, he falls madly in love with one of his students, Shirin.
