Excerpt from the book

I was arrested in the middle of the night. I was sleeping soundly when the sound of pounding on my door woke me up. I stumbled out of bed and opened the door to find myself face to face with three armed men.

"You are under arrest," one of them said. "You are being charged with treason." I was stunned. I had no idea what I had done to deserve such a charge. I was taken to a prison and thrown into a cell. The cell was dark and dirty, and the only furniture was a cot and a toilet.

I was interrogated for days on end. I was asked about my political beliefs and my involvement in any anti-government activities. I denied everything, but my interrogators didn't believe me. They beat me and threatened me with torture.

I was eventually sentenced to 10 years in prison. I was sent to a prison in the desert. The conditions in the prison were harsh. The food was terrible, the cells were overcrowded, and the guards were brutal.

But even in the darkest of times, I never gave up hope. I knew that I was innocent, and I was determined to prove it. I spent my days reading books and writing letters to my family and friends.

After 10 long years, I was finally released from prison. I was overjoyed to be free, but I was also deeply scarred by my experience. I had witnessed firsthand the horrors of the Iranian regime, and I knew that I could never forget what I had seen.

I wrote this book to share my story with the world. I want people to know what it is like to be a political prisoner in Iran. I want people to understand the importance of freedom of speech and human rights.
