Soon after seizing control, the Islamist government began detaining its citizens8212and Parsipur found herself incarcerated without charges.Kissing the Sword captures the surreal experience of serving time as a political prisoner and witnessing the systematic elimination of opposition to fundamentalist power. It is a harrowing narrative filled with both horror and humor: nights blasted by machine gun fire as detainees are summarily executed, days spent debating prison officials on whether the Quran demands that women be covered. Parsipur, one of modern Iran8217s great literary voices, mines her painful life experiences to deliver an urgent call for the most basic of human rights: the freedom of expression.8220Parsipur makes a stylishly original contribution to modern feminist literature.8221 8212Marjane Satrapi, author of Persepolis8220Stands as a powerful testament to not only the devastations of an era, but to the integrity and courage of an extraordinary woman.8221 8212Kirkus Reviews8220Parsipur8217s memoir is a powerful tale of a writer8217s struggle to survive the worst cases of atrocities and injustice with grace and compassion. A terribly dark but truly illuminating narrative Parsipur forces the reader to question human nature and resilience.8221 8212Shirin Neshat, artist<br>
