Items related to My Enemy My Friend
I courted my wife with during the Iranian Revolution. This Historical Romantic Fiction is based on our story. The Revolution made an appropriate setting for what I went through. As my own worst enemy, I identified with both the Iranian Imam who needed an American enemy's help to defeat the Shah and the American politician who needed the Imam's help to defeat an incumbent American President.
It is 1978. The Shah of Iran is in trouble. Barney Rosen returns to Iran to work for the US State Department. Barney's performance during his last tour of duty in Iran had cost him his wife, his job and his self-respect. Barney now carries messages between agents of the Iranian Imam and agents of the American politician.
But Barney also needs his inner enemy's help for himself. Barney's new job brings him face-to-face with Sarah Atkinson. For Barney to win Sarah's love, he has to defeat the enemy he carries within and enlist the help of the Iranian who has witnessed his disgrace.
Although this book is Historical Romantic Fiction, it is based on my own experiences in Iran during the Revolution and observations of people no longer available for comment.

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - It is 1978. The Shah of Iran is in trouble and Barney Rosen is back in Iran. Barney's performance during the Shah's 1970 celebration in Persepolis cost him his wife, his job and his self-respect. His new job brings him back to Iran as an art teacher at the International School of Tehran and face to face with a new love-Sarah Atkinson. Haunted by the ghost of his ex-wife and surrounded by examples of love-gone-bad in marriage, Barney must fight his fears and find a way to show Sarah that he loves her. As a reluctant courier for the American State Department in the Pre-Revolutionary Iran, Barney works undercover delivering messages from an American politician to an Iranian enemy. Barney begins to suspect that elements in his government may be trying to manipulate Iran's intricate alliances to influence the outcome of the American Presidential election. While on assignment in Isfahan, Barney realizes he too needs help from an enemy--himself. The maelstrom of December's Revolutionary March on Tehran's Shayad Monument gives Barney the opportunity to prove his love to Sarah. Seller Inventory # 9781425987664
