Book Synopsis

A moving, harrowing and compulsively readable portrait of the lives of Iranians across five decades, tracing the promise of the 1979 revolution and a people's undying spirit of resistance

In Stolen Revolution, award-winning journalists Yeganeh Torbati and Bozorgmehr Sharafedin tell the entwined stories of six Iranians who, together, have lived the arc of modern Iranian history in all its bitter twists and enduring hopes.
