never have imagined that one day, if someone Googled the two words \u2018Iran\u2019 and \u2018Doctor\u2019 my name would appear among the top ten search results. And not because I was a good doctor, but because I had just failed to save the life of a young girl bleeding to death in the street.\u2019<\/em><\/p><p>So begins\u2013or maybe concludes\u2013the chain of events that were to change the life of a young Iranian doctor, writer and publisher forever. On 20 June 2009, during demonstrations to protest the fraudulent Iranian presidential election, a young girl called <strong>Neda<\/strong> was shot to death in the streets of Tehran. Within hours, the <a title=\"The Death of Neda Agha Soltan\" href=\"http:\/\/youtu.be\/bbdEf0QRsLM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">video footage of Neda&#8217;s death<\/a>, fortuitously captured on a roving camera-phone, had circled the globe. Outside the country, the incident was a nine-day wonder; in Iran it changed the course of politics for a new generation.<\/p><p>It was also the moment of choice for the young doctor who had tried and failed to save her. Within days he had left Iran to tell the world the story the government was denying: <a title=\"Arash Hejazi talks about the death of Neda Agha Soltan\" href=\"http:\/\/news.bbc.co.uk\/1\/hi\/world\/middle_east\/8119713.stm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Neda had died at the hands of the pro-government militia<\/a>. After this, any chance of returning home was gone; Arash Hejazi, author and publisher himself became a target.<\/p><p>But as <a href=\"http:\/\/paulocoelho.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Paulo Coelho<\/strong><\/a>, author of <em>The Alchemist<\/em>, writes in the introduction to his friend\u2019s book: <em>\u2018Arash\u2019s story is not summarised in that moment; now he has to tell the story of that generation.\u2019<\/em> <strong><em>The Gaze of the Gazelle<\/em><\/strong> is that story: The memoirs and autobiography of Arash Hejazi on one hand, and the biography of the generation that was raised under the Islamic Republic of Iran on the other.<\/p><p>In a tale that mingles politics and the personal, mythology and history, he tries to answer the question \u2018How did it come to this?\u2019 His quest for an answer tells the story of the years since the Iranian Revolution brought Ayatollah Khomeini back from exile to drive the Shah from his peacock throne and set up the Islamic Republic of Iran.<\/p><p>Against the background of Saddam Hussein\u2019s invasion of Iran and the prolonged and dirty war that followed, the author of this autobiography skilfully interweaves his own story and that of his family and friends with the machinations of mullahs and the manoeuvres of politicians who seek to control their lives. The joy of revolution turns to the sorrow of loss: of friends and family at the front and in the prisons of the regime, of hope in the future. And of the determination of a new generation to recover that hope in the name of Neda, who gave her life in pursuit of a freer and better world.<\/p><p>This \u2018important and life-affirming memoir,\u2019 as Paulo Coelho says, is a must read for all who share that dream and seek to discover a country beyond the headlines and the hysteria that surrounds the Iranian bomb.<\/p><p>The Gaze of the Gazelle has been released in English, German, Swedish and Italian.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Gaze of the Gazelle 47 Sekunder Negli occhi della gazella Der blick der gazelle Read The Gaze of the Gazelle Online Editions in different languages Reviews Feedback &#8216;When I decided to abandon my medical career, I could never have imagined that one day, if someone Googled the two words \u2018Iran\u2019 and \u2018Doctor\u2019 my name would appear among the top&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/english.arashhejazi.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/271"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/english.arashhejazi.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/english.arashhejazi.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/english.arashhejazi.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/english.arashhejazi.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=271"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/english.arashhejazi.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/271\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1298,"href":"https:\/\/english.arashhejazi.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/271\/revisions\/1298"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/english.arashhejazi.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=271"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
