Truthfully I was quite surprised that Divorce was even an option in Iran. I have grown up with blinders on in respect to other cultures and now I have a huge curiosity about societies other than our own - well except maybe Canada. Divorce Iranian Style shows the harsh reality of marriage for many women in Iran - some married as early as fourteen - although when asked what the legal age is one magistrate states that a female can marry as early as puberty does - sometimes 9 years old!
