Passenger to Teheran

In 1926, Vita Sackville-West embarked on a leisurely journey to Iran, where her husband Harold Nicolson was a diplomat. Her route took her through Egypt’s Nile, India’s New Delhi and Agra, onwards to Iraq, and finally through bandit-ridden mountains to Teheran. Despite the dangers, including a return through revolutionary Russia and Poland, Vita’s adventurous spirit and humor shone. "Passenger to Teheran" is a classic, showcasing a lesser-known facet of a brilliant 20th-century author.

About

In 1926 Vita Sackville-West travelled to Iran to visit her husband, Harold Nicolson, who was serving as a diplomat in Teheran. Her route was deliberately slow-paced - she stopped in Egypt, where she sailed up the Nile to Luxor; and India, where she visited New Delhi and Agra before sailing across the Persian Gulf to Iraq and on through bandit-infested mountains to Teheran. She returned to England in an equally circuitous manner and despite travelling under dangerous circumstances, through communist Russia and Poland in the midst of revolution, her humour and sense of adventure never failed. Passenger to Teheran is a classic work, revealing the lesser-known side of one of the twentieth century's most luminous authors.
