		My articles?" Indeed in a recent issue of Der Spiegel, xenophobia was listed together with "poverty and dementia" as among the most widespread conditions of German provincial life.
		Certainly the account of events he reveals in the 2003 Finish-German-Franco documentary, Without my Daughter -- supported by eyewitnesses, friends and family associates -- is a sobering antidote to the novel.

		Molina is truly despicable as the husband, while Field projects a lot of overheated anguish as Betty tries to figure out a way to escape the country with her daughter.
		And expecting his American wife and child to relocate to the very anti-american Iran and to expect Betty to be happy exposing her child to living in a war zone and being raised in an oppressive regime was ridiculous.
		Any society that holds a woman at loaded gunpoint in front of her young daughter for having a scarf slip is not one that a mother would feel safe raising a child within.

		Her explanation that she was scared that he would have done it anyway, that is that he would take her daughter or both of them and take her/them to Iran is a bull!
		Ought to be required reading for any woman foolish enough to think she can marry a "handsome, exotic-looking man with an accent" and live happily ever after (especially if living in his country and with his family).
		Betty Mahmoody's 25-year crusade to warn others and to help women who made the same mistakes she did are a testament to authenticity of the facts in "Not Without My Daughter".

	The Green Hartnett Reviews: Without My Daughter
		After being held allegedly captive by her husband for eighteen months, she was glad to finally reach the shores of Western civilization once again, where she could resume her private life and begin writing.
		One might hope that, ten or fifteen years down the road, a filmed interview with the daughter might clear things up, but even that possibility seems doomed to failure, if one considers the influences at work.
		One could easily wonder whether or not the truth behind the story emanates from a desire for revenge on both the husband's and wife's side in a marriage gone wrong and in which the child is the ultimate victim.

		I know how stories were made up and manipulated in order to convince me of untruths from my mother and it took decades into my adult life before finally finding out the truth, even from her own family members, so I really wish Dr. Mahmoody would write his own account of all that happened...
		Mahtob was the daughter of Dr. Mahmoody as well, and was also an Iranian citizen when she was in that country.
		I listen to my intuition not to some man telling me to "trust him." This is not a matter of a culture being misrepresented, in my opinion.
