by Rhiannon Wilde
I’m losing it because I kissed you / Because I kissed you I might lose you. Henry Hamlet doesn’t know what he wants after school ends.

December 2018One Woman's Struggle In Iran
A Prison Memoir
by Nasrin Parvaz / Christel Wegert
This is a hard-hitting true story of a young woman who spent 8 years being tortured, starved, and threatened with execution, but who found strength in other woman and found joy in dark places. This physical book is evidence of an unbreakable spirit. In 1979, Nasrin Parvaz returned from England, where she had been studying, and became a member of a socialist party in Iran fighting for a non-Islamic state in which women had the same rights as men. Three years later, at the age of 23, she was betrayed by a comrade and arrested by the regime's secret police. Nasrin spent the next eight years in Iran's prison system. She was systematically tortured, threatened with execution, starved and forced to live in appalling, horribly overcrowded conditions. One Woman's Struggle is both an account of what happened to her during those eight years, and evidence that her spirit was never broken. Nasrin's memoir is a story of friendship and mutual support, of how the women drew strength from one another and found endless small ways to show kindness and even find tiny specks of joy.
