A Fire of Lilies(English, Paperback, Karimi-Hakkak Ahmad) is written by Karimi-Hakkak Ahmad and published by Leiden University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 9087283296 (ISBN 10) and 9789087283292 (ISBN 13).
This book examines the role of Persian literature in politics in the tumultuous period of Iranian history from 1950 to 2000, illustrating how intellectuals used poetry, plays, novels and short stories to comment on socio-political developments. The unique aspect of the book is its strong empirical perspective, as Karimi-Hakkak has participated in the events he is writing about. It analyses how Persian intellectuals dealt with censorship, suppression, imprisonment, exile and even execution for the sake of expression of free speech.
