New York Times bestselling author Khaled Hosseini says, “Set in post-revolutionary Iran, Sahar Delijani’s gripping novel is a blistering indictment of tyranny, a poignant tribute to those who bear the scars of it, and a celebration of the human heart’s eternal yearning for freedom.” Neda is born in Iran’s Evin Prison, where her mother is allowed to nurse her for a few months before an anonymous guard appears at the cell door one day and simply takes her away. In another part of the city, three-year-old Omid witnesses the arrests of his political activist parents from his perch at their kitchen table, yogurt dripping from his fingertips. More than twenty years after the violent, bloody purge that took place inside Tehran’s prisons, Sheida learns that her father was one of those executed, that the silent void firmly planted between her and her mother all these years was not just the sad loss that comes with death but the anguish and the horror of murder. These are the Children of the Jacaranda Tree. Set in post-revolutionary Iran from 1983 to 2011, this stunning debut novel follows a group of mothers, fathers, children, and lovers, some related by blood, others brought together by the tide of history that washes over their lives. Finally, years later, it is the next generation that is left with the burden of the past and their country’s tenuous future as a new wave of protest and political strife begins. “Heartbreakingly heroic” (Publishers Weekly), Children of the Jacaranda Tree is an evocative portrait of three generations of men and women inspired by love and poetry, burning with idealism, chasing dreams of justice and freedom. Written in Sahar Delijani’s spellbinding prose, capturing the intimate side of revolution in a country where the weight of history is all around, it is a moving tribute to anyone who has ever answered its call.

A country divided by revolution. A people united by love. CHILDREN OF THE JACARANDA TREE is an astonishing debut reminiscent of THE KITE RUNNER and HALF A YELLOW SUN. Deep in Tehran's Evin Prison, Azar gives birth to a baby girl. Corridors away, Amir is making a bracelet out of date stones. He hopes that one day his daughter will hold it in her hands. As a camera shutter closes, three children are fixed in time. These children cannot remember their mothers' faces. But their mothers will treasure the photos, daring to imagine the life that goes on beyond prison walls. Revolution has torn the future from the past. But these children, the children of the jacaranda tree, will have the chance to grow. They will go into exile, they will find love and they will return home to Iran. But they will also have to confront the terrible legacies passed from one generation to the next when the cold boot of history stamps on individual lives. CHILDREN OF THE JACARANDA TREE is a novel about the ghosts of revolution. It is a novel about forging the future when your past is too painful to remember. It is a novel that you will never forget.

Under the Jacaranda is a sweeping contemporary saga following Serene, a wife and mother, as she travels between Johannesburg and Nairobi, reflecting on her past and how her life has turned out. In Jo'burg, she discovers that an old friend, Nomsa, has cancer - which contributes to her contemplation and soul-searching. Her thoughts turn to her fraught family history - delving into the tribulations of an African family through the upheavals of post-colonial and modern Kenya. Flitting between the present and the past, traversing four decades, three countries and two continents, we learn about her through the complexities of family and love - such as her father's secret daughter, and the tensions between her and her sisters. We follow her self-discovery as she reconnects with her past, and all the characters in it. That many characters throughout this emotionally loaded epic help explore an overarching and important theme - identity. They also portray many other traits of human nature - greed, malice, deception, prejudice, jealousy, joy, triumph, and empathy. The constant slipping between the past and the present brings a spiritual atmosphere to the book, which often feels dreamy and magical - a bittersweet mix of nostalgia and past hopes, while the frequent reference to a resistant brown patch under a jacaranda tree in her parents' garden easily draws parallels with the trials and tribulations of her family. All of these build up conflict, leading to the climactic scene of her father's memorial service, where all the hidden and alarming secrets of the family are finally brought into the open.

Iran S Struggles For Social Justice written by Peyman Vahabzadeh and has been published by Springer this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2016-12-20 with Political Science categories.
This interdisciplinary volume offers a range of studies spanning the various historical, political, legal, and cultural features of social justice in Iran, and proposes that the present-day realities of life in Iran could not be farther from the promises of the Iranian Revolution. The ideals of social justice and participatory democracy that galvanized a resilient nation in 1979 have been abandoned as an avaricious ruling elite has privatized the economy, abandoned social programs and subsidy payments for the poor, and suppressed the struggles of women, workers, students, and minorities for equality. At its core, Iran’s Struggles for Social Justice seeks to educate and to develop a new discourse on social justice in Iran.
