[Mandana · Rating 4 out of 5]

The reading of this book for me coincided with the events after Iran's presidential election fraud. It is really amazing how people's experiences could be similar and how history repeats itself. I really enjoyed reading this book. It was thrilling, exciting and educative; what made it even more effective for me was the fact that I have had experienced similar situations. The author has done a phenomenal job narrating different parties' emotions and way of thinking. I do recommend it to those willing to know about how people's perception of life and mental well-being could alter under depressive regimes.
