[ Iran Awakening ] sometimes reads like a police thriller, its drama heightened by [Shirin] Ebadi’s determination to keep up the quotidian aspects of her family life.”— The Washington Post Book World (Best Books of the Year) “A testament to how a single, inspired voice can rise above the cacophony . . . the book should be required reading.”— The Nation In Iran Awakening, Dr. Shirin Ebadi recounts her public career and reveals her private self: her faith, her experiences, and her desire to lead a traditional life even while serving as a rebellious voice in a land where such voices are muted or brutally silenced. Ebadi describes her girlhood in Tehran, her education, and her early professional success as Iran’s most accomplished female jurist—until hardline clerics demoted her after the 1979 Islamic Revolution. She eventually fought her way back as a human rights lawyer, defending women and children in politically charged cases that most lawyers were afraid to represent. In reading Ebadi’s story, we come to see a devoted daughter, wife, and mother. Ebadi is an everywoman, albeit one who has braved imprisonment, harassment, and assassination attempts, all for the dream of a better Iran for her daughters and for generations to come. For her bravery and selflessness, she has been embraced as a national hero and as a key player in helping to forge Iran’s destiny, whatever it may be. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Dimensions | 5.19 x 0.58 x 8 inches | | Edition | Reprint | | Isbn 10 | 0812975286 | | Isbn 13 | 978-0812975284 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print Length | 256 pages | | Publication Date | April 10, 2007 | | Publisher | Random House Publishing Group | ## Images ![Iran Awakening: One Woman's Journey to Reclaim Her Life and Country - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81nTyVdE88L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Inspirational. *by on Reviewed in the United States January 22, 2016* Shirin Ebadi, winner of the 2003 Nobel Peace Prize and a multitude of honours from various countries for her courageous and honourable stand for women's rights in a country notorious for it's poor human rights record.Herself, a qualified Judge, was stripped of her right to work in the area for which she was trained and suffered the indignities and frustration of her gender following the Revolution and establishment of the Islamic Republic, where women have been considered second rate citizens for centuries.She has been constantly harassed, jailed on one occasion, as well as being on hit lists, and is currently protected by bodyguards in fear of her life.Her determination to help create a better Iran for her fellow citizens, all the while respecting her Religious beliefs makes for an incredible and admirable human being.Iran Awakening tells the story of her struggle for the recognition of women and for the rights of normal men and women under a Regime that is steadfast in it's beliefs.The book is written without any sensationalism and is a quiet but powerful document on the problems in Iran.Intelligently and clearly written, I would urge anyone interested in world politics to read this book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very powerful read *by on Reviewed in the United States November 15, 2018* To read about all the struggles of living in an authoritarian country like Iran was very enlightening and challenging. I kept asking myself, what would I do if I were in the author’s position. Would I live the courage of my conviction, if I were subject to ongoing death threats?Well written. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very interesting read *by on Reviewed in the United States December 27, 2013* This really informs you on a lot of the history of the past 60 years in Iran. You get a glimpse and a better understanding for what life was like in the 70s to the early 2000s. Books like these are so important for those like myself who need a primer to understand the current situation in countries of controversy. The fact that the book is written by an Iranian only makes it much more credible.
