SUMMARY: THEY SAID THEY WANTED REVOLUTION: A Memoir of My Parents by Neda Toloui-Semnani

by Richard Burke

This summary of Neda Toloui-Semanani’s book, They Said They Wanted A Memoir of My Parents glaringly reveals the experiences from a little girl of Iranian progressives, activists, migrants, displaced people, and refugee searchers with a grasping and passionate diary of family and the wild history of two countries.

Neda Toloui-Semnani's parents successfully fled the United States for Iran in 1979 to take part in the reform. Be that as it may, the guarantee of those early exciting days in Tehran was distorted by the ascent of the Islamic Republic. With the new system came worldwide confinement, social decimation, and significant individual misfortune for Neda. Her dad was captured and her mom had to make a frantic escape, while pregnant with Neda.

This summary vividly showcases how Neda trudged ahead, having needed to deal with the past directly. Through her journals and a myraid of interviews, Neda unwinds many years of history in a quest for answers.

An excruciating journey clashed with regards to her folks' decisions for quite a long time; an epic family show and a convenient genuine life political spine chiller all summarized in the most direct and comprehensible way, while retaining its emotional relevance.
