Stolen Revolution: Betrayal and Hope in Modern Iran

內容簡介

內容簡介 這是一幅感人且沉重的肖像，描繪了橫跨五十年的伊朗人生活，追溯了 1979 年伊朗革命的承諾、獨裁勢力的背叛，以及人民永不磨滅的抗爭精神。「了解今日伊朗最好的書……讓人愛不釋手。」 ——愛德華·費雪曼（Edward Fishman），《瓶頸》（Chokepoints）作者「報導文學的傑作……是理解當下時刻的一把萬能鑰匙。」 ——強納森·布利策（Jonathan Blitzer），《離去者皆在此》（Everyone Who Is Gone Is Here）作者「這一代關於伊朗社會最深刻的作品之一。」 ——史考特·安德森（Scott Anderson），《萬王之王》（King of Kings）作者1979 年，一場在伊朗爆發的革命橫掃了君主制，這場運動由伊朗人民對社會正義與政治自由的夢想所推動。但在隨後的歲月裡，運動領袖何梅尼（Ayatollah Khomeini）及其追隨者卻建立了一個僅為其狹隘派系服務的體制，其殘暴與腐敗程度甚至超乎想像，更甚於前朝政府。在《被竊取的革命》（Stolen Revolution）中，獲獎記者耶加內·托爾巴蒂（Yeganeh Torbati）與博佐梅爾·沙拉費丁（Bozorgmehr Sharafedin）講述了六位伊朗人交織的故事，他們共同活出了現代伊朗歷史中所有苦澀轉折與持久希望的弧線。我們遇見了梅赫迪·卡魯比（Mehdi Karroubi），他是何梅尼的追隨者，曾登上權力巔峰，隨後卻被逐出核心圈子。年輕的社運人士希拉·塞迪吉（Hila Sedighi）透過詩歌，為同齡人的希望與破碎的夢想發聲。野心勃勃的政府官僚阿米爾·莫哈丹（Amir Moghadam）目睹了大規模的腐敗與貪污，促使他冒著巨大風險揭發真相。賽義德·拉赫馬尼（Said Rahmani）回到伊朗，試圖在故鄉掀起新創浪潮，卻遭遇了殘酷的安全體制國家。而出生於 1990 年代的羅欣·優素福扎德（Rozhin Yousefzadeh）與科薩爾·埃夫特哈里（Kosar Eftekhari），則加入了一場對抗兇殘國家機器的群眾運動：「女性、生命、自由」抗爭。所有人都為反抗政府的窒息統治付出了巨大代價。今日，伊朗正困在危機與希望之間。在這部生動且令人難忘的敘事中，《被竊取的革命》以普通伊朗人及其命運為中心，傳達了在現代威權國家中生活的刻骨銘心景象。A moving and harrowing portrait of the lives of Iranians across five decades, tracing the promise of the 1979 Iranian revolution, its betrayal by forces of autocracy, and a people’s undying spirit of resistance“The best book to understand Iran today. . . . impossible to put down.”—EDWARD FISHMAN, author of Chokepoints“A masterwork of reporting. . . . a kind of skeleton key for understanding the present moment.”—JONATHAN BLITZER, author of Everyone Who Is Gone Is Here“One of the most incisive works on Iranian society in a generation.”—SCOTT ANDERSON, author of King of KingsIn 1979, a revolution in Iran swept aside a monarchy, fueled by the Iranian people’s dreams of social justice and political freedom. But in the years that followed, the movement’s leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, and his acolytes instead built a system that served their narrow faction and worsened beyond imagination the brutality and corruption that had existed under the previous government. In Stolen Revolution, award-winning journalists Yeganeh Torbati and Bozorgmehr Sharafedin tell the entwined stories of six Iranians who, together, have lived the arc of modern Iranian history in all its bitter twists and enduring hopes.We meet Mehdi Karroubi, a devotee of Khomeini, who rose to the heights of power before being cast out of the inner circle. Hila Sedighi, a young activist, gave voice through her poetry to her peers’ hopes and shattered dreams. Amir Moghadam, an ambitious government bureaucrat, witnessed corruption and graft on a scale that impelled him to take enormous risks to expose the truth. Said Rahmani returned to Iran to spark a start-up boom in his native country and encountered a ruthless security state. And Rozhin Yousefzadeh and Kosar Eftekhari, both born in the 1990s, joined a mass movement that confronted a ferocious state apparatus: the Woman, Life, Freedom protests. All have paid an enormous price for resisting the government’s strangling rule.Today, Iran is caught between crisis and hope. In this vivid and unforgettable narrative, Stolen Revolution centers ordinary Iranians and their destiny, and conveys a gutting view of life in a modern authoritarian state.
