Synopsis
Nasrin spent eight years in Iran’s prison system. She was systematically tortured, threatened with execution, starved and forced to live in appalling, horribly overcrowded conditions. Her memoir is both an account of what happened to her during those eight years, and evidence that her spirit was never broken.
Authors Biography
Nasrin became a civil rights activist when the Islamic regime took power in Iran. After her release, Nasrin resumed her activities and again she found herself being followed by Islamic guards. She realised she could no longer stay in Iran and fled to England, where she claimed asylum in 1993.
A tribute to the author’s resilience. This is a powerful and compelling read.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
This memoir hits you from the very beginning by the horror of torture but as you continue reading you realise that the strength of women under a brutal regime of abuse, humiliation and rape is never broken. Illustrated by the author’s own paintings those memories acquire even more significance.
Inspirational!
Well done is all I can say!
Nasrin’s account opened my heart to imprisoned writers and all those who suffer torture and violence.
Powerful! Well done.
Nasrin is a wonderful writer and I really hope this book reaches as many readers as possible.
Her bravery is a breathtaking exmple to us all.
A brave book to describe the iranies women situation surviving with courage and hope. This memory is an amazing resource on the global solidarity between women, women that dream living without fear in any place of the world.
Women who have to find courage in such terrible circumstances, should be honoured.
