Opis

This book is a powerful personal and cultural memoir that explores the lived experiences of an Azerbaijani in Iran, caught between heritage, identity, and systemic challenges. Through intimate reflections, the book unveils the struggles of preserving language, traditions, and dignity in the face of political and social pressures. It highlights the silence forced upon minorities, the resilience of cultural practices, and the invisible battles against discrimination. Moving from early childhood memories in Iran to the difficult yet hopeful journey of immigration to Canada, the narrative captures both the pain of leaving one's homeland and the discovery of new freedoms abroad. Beyond personal experience, it calls for solidarity among minorities and encourages intercultural dialogue as a means to preserve diversity. Ultimately, the book bridges past and future, tradition and innovation, offering a heartfelt message of hope, belonging, and the importance of defending cultural identity worldwide.
