Iran Awakening-

I firstly wanted to state that I think that the main character of this book is a very complex but highly educated individual and I enjoyed reading what she had to portray and write about. I was really shocked by her life and the troubles and triumphs that it entailed. Mainly, her being stripped of her judgeship, going to jail and also winning the Nobel Peace prize. These three things alone are huge life-changing experiences and the way she handled them I think was really courageous and strong. Many of the things that she discussed, were topics or occurrences that many would not wish on another but she was able to maintain her life.

I wanted to also call attention to the end of the book, which really shows how smart she really is. What I mean in particular is the way that she was able to get her book published by having an American represent her. I think that this was an interesting way to bend the rules but one that is highly intelligent.


Overall, I really admire her courageous attitude and I respect her for being able to maintain such a troubled yet positive existence.
