Here, in what is bound to be one of the most
controversial and talked about books of the
decade, Ashraf Pahlavi, twin sister of the Shah
of Iran, tells the extraordinary story of her life
and of her country. For the first time she
records her views
—
based on personal experi¬
ences and inside information as only she could
know them
—
of the events which surrounded
the removal of the Shah, the take-over by the
Khomeini regime, and the international furor
which resulted from her brother s treatment at
New York Hospital.
In FACES IN A MIRROR, she recalls her
fiercely determined rise to independence and
political activity in a country that traditionally
has granted women few rights and little free-
dom^some even came to call her the real
power behind the throne. Now she recounts
the historic events she has witnessed and been
part of for four decades since the time of the
Teheran Conference in
1943:
jţ
She discloses new details of her visit to
Joseph Stalin at the height of the Cold War,
when Iran was facing grave dangers from the
Soviet Union.
■Jc She talks for the first time about her in¬
tense personal struggle with Iran s controversial
Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh and
reveals her secret role in Operation
Ajax —
the
CIA operation that led to Mossadegh s fall and
kept Iran from the hands of the Communists.
k She offers a comprehensive account of the
events that led to the overthrow of the Shah
and makes clear how central was America s role
in bringing about the downfall of the monarchy.
Ά
She tells what happened in the last year of
the Pahlavi reign, how it happened, and who the
men were behind the upheaval.
Ashraf Pahlavi speaks directly to the
widely publicized accusations that have been
made against the Pahlavis and against herself
—
charges ranging from police brutality and mis¬
appropriation of public funds to espionage,
smuggling, and even drug traffic. It is, she
writes, in part such allegations that have led me to
write this book
—
not as a way of defending myself, but
as a way of considering these charges candidly and
truthfully and as a way of setting out the political
events in my country, as well as the events of my
personal life.
This is a courageous, frankly personal
document by one of the most extraordinary
women of our time
—
a woman who has partici¬
pated in some of the most critical moments in
our postwar history. She has shared the bur¬
dens of her brother as he was forced into exile
and had to search the world for a new home,
watched the raging controversy outside as her
brother lay ill in New York Hospital, and, in
December
1979,
received the news that her son
Shahriar had been shot and killed in a Paris
street.
Whatever your views about Iran, the Pah¬
lavis, or American policy in the Middle East, you
cannot fail to be moved and enlightened by this
gripping account of a woman caught in the
vortex of history.
