Carrying the truth hand to hand
Aramofen, novelist. His debut, Keeper of Truth, is open for pre-order; release 2 October 2026, the festival of Mehregan.
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.
