A Whale Suicide

By Shahriar Jahanian

What is life but a mere road that is hard to travel?

A Whale Suicide is a historical and true story of bravery and resilience. One day Shahriar receives a call. His high school best friend, Parviz, has suffered a massive heart attack and is now taking his last breath on a hospital bed. Shahriar rushes to meet him only to realize that he is now dying with the paid revolution that happened decades back in Iran.

Shahriar reads the diary of Parviz, a man who once shouted, "Death to Shah," in the streets of Tehran. He was now dying a gruesome death himself. This man fought to see Khomeini return to Iran from exile and, the next day, suffered the evilest and medieval torture at the hands of the same person's men.

This is an excerpt of one story showing how a family was destroyed because of a massive whale's suicide. However, many Iranians left their country due to the fear of being killed in the name of religion. They smuggled themselves out of their country in search of freedom and peace.

Read this exciting story to learn about the Iranian Revolution in the words of Shahriar and Parviz.
