For over fifty years the Shah Pahlavi dynasty ruled Iran until Ayatollah Khomeini's 1979 Islamic Revolution seized power and began its own reign of tyranny. The questions about the revolution shape The Golden Cage while the answers shed light on Islamic Iran's current events and tell us why it strives for nuclear energy, chants "Death to Israel," and claims to be the most powerful force in the Middle East and Muslim world.History perhaps is best described through life stories we each can hold dearly. The Golden Cage is one such story about three brothers the author knew through their sister, Pari, a childhood friend. Each brother subscribes to a different political ideology that tears Iran and their lives apart. As Pari observes, her brothers live deluded lives in golden cages of ideology. These words mark the beginning of this story, illuminating the multifaceted, oppressive Iran of today and years past.

Recensione:
The Golden Cage is a powerful account of the intolerance and repression that has dogged Iran since the CIA-backed overthrow of Mossadegh.[...] By using the personal narratives of three brothers, all "victims of equal injustice", Ebadi ensures that her exploration of Iran's past is both accessible and highly readable. The Golden Cage is a testament to Ebadi's resilience and the courage of those, like her, who continue to peacefully fight against injustice. --Lucy Popescu, The Independent
[ ... ] this moving book is a monument in itself, commemorating friendship and the human spirit. --Joan Smith, The Times
