Kaveh Kazemi presents a selection of remarkable photographs documenting the lives, ceremonies, and monuments of Zoroastrians in contemporary Iran. The book reveals the mystical world of this Iranian religion, which is counted among the world's oldest organised faiths, and its holy sites in Yazd, Tehran, Taft, Cham, Sharifabad, and elsewhere. Through his photojournalistic lens, Kazemi captures ancient customs and traditions that have existed since the pre-Islamic Sassanid era, including now-abandoned structures such as Towers of Silence and Fire Temples, as well as the faith's evolution through its adherents in the modern era, thousands of years later.
