With the chant of “Woman Life Freedom”, men and women in Iran, many of them young, have been engaged in a political enterprise that stirs us in a precise manner, by reminding us of the possibility, always, of revolt. The book is the chronicle of a revolt that took hold of Iran with surprise, audacity, and uncertainty in 2022. The long autumn of insurrection also conjures up other sequences in Iranian history, illuminated by other movements, and memories of struggle and violence. The result is a long history of power and resistance, which is portrayed through the lens of the author’s family history, as well as her research as an anthropologist attentive to counter archives and collective emotions. Woman! Life! Freedom! leaves the reader with an archive in the orange light of street fires, which have become the symbol of a revolt that is experienced as a combustion of anger, profanation and contagion.
