Reseña del libro "The Stamp Collector: There and Back Again (en Inglés)"

Tehran - Spring 1914. The Persian Constitutional Revolution had succeeded in establishing a Parliament to check the power of a corrupt Shah. Meanwhile Russia, France, and Britain joust for control of Persia and the rest of the Middle East.Abdulrahim Kashani, a leader of the Revolution, is returning to life as a shop owner in the Bazaar when he is invited by the Worshipful Master of his Masonic Lodge to make a journey to Paris. The reason for this three thousand mile trip into a region on the verge of war? His treasured stamp collection! Kashani is the foremost authority on stamp collecting in all of Persia, but even he knows that this is not the real reason.Within days of accepting the invitation, Kashani is approached by his cousin the Grand Ayatollah, the British Ambassador to Persia, and a German Spy. Everyone seems to know more about this trip than he does. And they all want something from him. When agents of MI6 step in to save his life, he learns that Paris may not be his final destination.This story is fiction, but based on real people, a documented trip, and the geopolitical machinations that led up to the start of the First World War. It is a look behind the scenes of the events that transformed the Middle East into the political cauldron we find today. The Stamp Collector launches the reader into a world of dazzling characters and ensnares them in a captivating spell of masterful storytelling.
