Klappentext
"A remarkable volume and a true act of solidarity. A testament to both our fragility and our resilience. It will break your heart--and inspire you."--Ahdaf Soueif, author of The Map of Love"The defeat of the Egyptian revolution is one of the great calamities of the contemporary Middle East. Imprisoning a Revolution brings us the urgent, eloquent voices of men and women who refuse to be broken, or silenced, by their despotic and pitiless regime, which rules Egypt with the complicity of Arab leaders and the Western powers. All but abandoned by the world, Egypt's political prisoners have transformed their confinement into a laboratory of a democratic future, reminding us that--in the words of Milan Kundera--'the struggle of man against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting.'"--Adam Shatz, author of The Rebel's Clinic: The Revolutionary Lives of Frantz Fanon
"Ahmed Naji writes in his foreword that for political prisoners, 'writing is the highest form of resistance.' This epic collection of prisoner texts testifies to his observation that their 'will has not been broken' and that they remain 'capable of thinking, creating, and innovating.'"--A. Dirk Moses, author of The Problems of Genocide
"While a candle burns, darkness doesn't win. As long as a prisoner with a pen has the courage to put words to paper, darkness won't win. These remarkable, eloquent, and heart-wrenching testimonies from some of those unjustly incarcerated in Egypt remind us that human rights courage burns even today and gives all of us hope for a brighter future."--Paul O'Brien, Executive Director, Amnesty International USA
