Book About:

The novel talks about September 1941. The story narrates the resignation and exile of Reza Shah Pahlavi who was sent abroad when the Allies have occupied the country. A narrator is an old man who nar-rates the story 70 years ago to several young journalists. The story begins with the issue of "unveiling”. It is about the country's lower class (the poor) in the aftermath of the outbreak of the Second World War, the transition of power from father to his son in the Pahlavi Dynasty, and the occupation of the capital by the Allies. The unveiling was confronted with the resistance of many religious people and religious scholars and resulted in intimidation, threats, and imprisonment of countless people. In this novel, pulling women's Hijab and the brutal extortion by the regime’s police officers from simple rural people are depicted. Sweet dialogues and, most importantly, and surprising subject of the novel are very innovative and make half the way for the novel In this novel, we encoun-ter a character who creates adventure and mainstream with whose help alone a writing of a (well-documented) historical novel and a narration proceeds free from a formal or anti-formal reading and in itself (because of being well-documented) not only is a fair reading but also based on the history. The book presents both research and the art of story writing. In a nutshell, this novel is recommended as it has several exciting and fascinating scenes in the storyline.
