Author of the novel Keeper of Truth
We only understand history when we live it, not merely read it.
AramofenCarrying the truth hand to hand
Aramofen, novelist. Keeper of Truth is available in Persian and English on Amazon in Kindle, paperback and hardcover.
I did not write this book in ink. I wrote it with memory. With the knot in my throat, with anger, with hope, and with a love that has lost nothing to all the years that have passed over it: love for Iran.
From the Author’s Note, Keeper of TruthFiction on the line between novel and document. The people are invented; the ground they walk on is built from Iran’s documented history.
AramofenI do not write history for the past. I write it for the future. We only understand history when we live it, not merely read it. And truth does not survive because it is indestructible; it survives because someone chooses to carry it.
