I'm not on Kindle Unlimited, and it was still free for me.

I forgot that Amazon started allowing downloading ebooks again - I used my regular method to liberate it through more complicated means :D

I traveled across Iran in 2004 as a very young person. It's a beautiful country w/mountainous geography reminiscent of Colorado or Montana. Everywhere I went, people seemed eager to reassure me "we hate your government, not you." In our own hell, we are now experts at making that same distinction.
