Roger Housden talks about Saved by Beauty: Adventures of an American Romantic in Iran ($24.00). In 2009, Housden traveled to Iran to meet with artists and religious scholars who embody that country’s 3,000 year tradition of humanism. In this account, Housden weaves a richly textured story – a poetic, perceptive appreciation of a culture that has long endured.

Roger Housden grew up in the Cotswolds on the edge of Bath, in England. He has led contemplative journeys all over the world, and has been a freelance writer for The Guardian newspaper and an interviewer for the BBC. Housden is the author of numerous books on poetry, art, and travel, including the bestselling Ten Poems series, as well as the novella Chasing Rumi. Since 1998, he has made his home in Sausalito.
