A Way to Comprehend Autobiographies and Personal Narratives
Seemingly simple lines between the two main and sub-titles of the book turn into an eloquent design on the cover in which the three excerpts on the back of the cover express the same content in a clear and explicit way.

Basij in the 17th Ali ibn Abi Taleb Division
“Today, we keep saying to make the work public and leave it to them; people who believe in the principle of doing their duty, not for their own interest.
