An eyewitness account from Iran
A deeply personal, politically impassioned portrait of the historic protests taking place in Iran, by a female witness and participant who must remain strictly anonymous. With an introduction by Christina Lamb.


INSIDE IRAN'S NEW REVOLUTION

A deeply personal, politically impassioned portrait of the protests taking place in Iran.
I've stopped pulling up my scarf to cover my hair when I pass by the guards. I know that nothing can stop one of them from raising his gun and targeting me. But this is for the greater good.
Anonymous activist Nila gives us a witness' insight into the everyday activism, bravery and violence of daily life under Iran's regime, even as the authorities try to hide the true size of protests and scale of mass killings.
In this incisive, moving narrative, an anonymous Iranian woman describes her daily activism in the streets of Tehran, and shows it to be part of a long and powerful tradition of female resistance.
WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY CHRISTINA LAMB

Translated by Poupeh Missaghi.
