Una visión terrorífica y de primera mano a la opresión que sufren las mujeres bajo el régimen iraní tan sólo por ser mujeres. La repetición de escenarios, vejaciones, insultos y trato inhumano refleja el paso eterno en celdas de aislamiento y el sufrimiento de estas valientes defensoras de la justicia y los derechos humanos. Pero por encima de todo, que no hay poder opresor que pueda quebrantar el espíritu ni el convencimiento de la aquellas que creen en la libertad y un futuro más justo y con mayor igualdad.
A terrifying and first-hand view of the oppression that women suffer under the Iranian regime just because they are women. The repetition of scenarios, humiliations, insults and inhumane treatment reflects the eternal passage in cells of isolation and the suffering of these brave defenders of justice and human rights. But above all, there is no oppressive power that can break the spirit or the conviction of those who believe in freedom and a more just and more equal future.

A very difficult book to read. I cannot imagine the brutality and torture that these women suffered at the hands of the regime. Wherever your politics align, nobody should condone the horrifying acts committed against women dubbed as "political dissidents" in Iran.
