Kader Abdolah's 'House of the Mosque' (NL)


Nicky Aerts talks to Kader Abdolah - Iranian by birth, Dutch by necessity - about his new book 'the House of the Mosque', in Radio 1's daily show "Neon".

'The House of the Mosque' describes life in Iran against the backdrop of the revolution of 1979; the rise of the mullahs as a turning point in the everyday lives of muslims; and how thirst for power kills the poetic beauty of the Qu'ran.
