Nam-e Kouchak-e Man Belgheis by Belgheis Soleimani

Description

It's a collection of memoirs and notes by Belgheis Soleimani, where she recounts her childhood, adolescence, and youth. While readers get acquainted with the author's personal life, they also gain insight into a period of Iranian social and political history, particularly the generation of idealistic and revolutionary individuals. The book begins with the author stating: "They named me Belgheis in 1346 (Persian calendar). Four years after my birth, I got an ID card.

I narrate the story of those four years of anonymity in the tale in the collection 'A Boy Who Loved Me'..."
