The Fall of Heaven by Andrew Scott Cooper Book Summary

An immersive, gripping account of the rise and fall of Iran's glamorous Pahlavi dynasty, written with the cooperation of the late Shah's widow, Empress Farah, Iranian revolutionaries and US officials from the Carter administration

In this remarkably human portrait of one of the twentieth century's most complicated personalities, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, Andrew Scott Cooper traces the Shah's life from childhood through his ascension to the throne in 1941. He draws the turbulence of the post-war era during which the Shah survived assassination attempts and coup plots to build a modern, pro-Western state and launch Iran onto the world stage as one of the world's top five powers. Readers get the story of the Shah's political career alongside the story of his courtship and marriage to Farah Diba, who became a power in her own right, the beloved family they created, and an exclusive look at life inside the palace during the Iranian Revolution. Cooper's investigative account ultimately delivers the fall of the Pahlavi dynasty through the eyes of those who were there: leading Iranian revolutionaries; President Jimmy Carter and White House officials; US Ambassador William Sullivan and his staff in the American embassy in Tehran; American families caught up in the drama; even Empress Farah herself, and the rest of the Iranian Imperial family. Intimate and sweeping at once, The Fall of Heaven recreates in stunning detail the dramatic and final days of one of the world's most legendary ruling families, the unseating of which helped set the stage for the current state of the Middle East.

Positively Terrible. The book reads like cheap propaganda or late night infomercial, being entirely devoid of any semblance of objective analysis. The royal family is showered with level of praise suggestive of infallibility. Although the constituent points within book appear mostly accurate, they are entirely invalidated by the obsequious presentation, which renders book as entirely unreliable. The tone & substance is entirely irreconcilable with author's prior work on similar subject matter, which was quite good--analytical and balanced.

Most Precise Book. The book is the most detailed and precise one, all of the events and secrets behind are shown accurately. All of the informations are validated by Queen Farah and are sufficiently reliable. These are occurrences that are confirmed by our notable historians and frank politicians.However, the book was unfairly criticized by an islamic revolution advocate in NYTimes but it is obvious this does not depreciate it at all.
