Staging a Revolution: The Art of Persuasion in the Islamic Republic of Iran by Peter J. Chelkowski, ISBN 0814715974
Staging a Revolution examines the orchestration of public myths and collective symbols in the making of the Islamic Revolution in Iran. From banners and songs, to bank notes and chewing-gum wrappers, the book depicts the words and images that geared the Iranian people towards mass mobilization for revolution and war. With essays by experts from New York University and Columbia University, the book examines previously unpublished sources in relation to Iranian history and religion. From the fiery speeches of Ayatollah Khomeini to graffiti, slogans and murals, the visual and iconographic history of the Islamic Revolution, little known to the West, is uncovered. The first book to examine this colossal political event through the images that set it in motion, Staging a Revolution tells the story from the inside -- revelatory and unfiltered history at its best.

Murder (a Violet)
"Mysterious and enticing, "Murder (A Violet) is a brilliant narrative. This serial poem provides room for the reader to enter and participate in the game played by its textual agents-the assassin, the abbess, the janissaries, the vines, the trees. Flashes of action, some of them quite violent and noir alternate with evocative, lyrical passages reminiscent of Japanese landscape scrolls, and speeches concerning questions of guilt and redemption-all of this composed with a light touch and an ear sensitive to the weights and balances of words."-Anselm Hollo, National Poetry Series judge
Raymond McDaniel grew up in Florida and now lives in Ann Arbor where he writes for the "Constant Critic, teaches at the University of Michigan and hosts the reading series at Shaman Drum Bookshop.
