right now I'm on Return to Jahilia. the section I find most interesting is another book, Ayesha, with the Imman and the Empress. the events in this book, closely mirrors the Iranian revolution. I also find the overall theme of the intersection of good and evil very interesting.

little about the Iranian revolution; do the parallels run throughout the various stories, or are they contained in one? For myself, the foremost theme I remember is the tension between sanity and madness. I read it last about 5 years ago.
