圖書名稱:Let Us Water the Flowers: The Memoir of a Political Prisoner in Iran
內容簡介
Having returned to Iran with great hopes following the 1979 overthrow of the Shah, the author joined a secular left opposition group resisting the theocratic orientation of the revolution. He was subsequently arrested and held as a prisoner between 1984 and 1989, an era characterized by major political repression. In this memoir, he describes those years, providing a picture of (and tribute to) the experiences of Iranian political prisoners in the 1980s through his own memories and the testimonies of other prisoners. He also includes an introduction that places these events within the context of 20th century Iranian history. Annotation 穢2011 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
