31. The House I Left Behind by Daniel Shayesten

Such a fascinating story from a person who was on the inside of the Iranian revolution. He hoped for democracy and a better life for all classes of people. He got a repressive regime. This is one man's journey from disillusionment and despair to hope and peace. 

 (I titled it differently in the heading because the updated version is called The House I Left Behind)
