The Golden Cage

"If you do not have the power to overthrow the rule of oppression, inform others of the oppression." Persian proverb Questions about Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution shape The Golden Cage while the answers shed light on 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 whom 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 the past.
