THE EVIN PRISON BAKERS' CLUB Surviving Iran's Most Notorious Prisons in 16 Recipes

by | Read by Ashraf Shirazi

Biography & Memoir • 3.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2025

Ashraf Shirazi's narration brings quiet strength and emotional resonance to the author's contemplations of imprisonment in Iran--her own and that of other feminist figures, including Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe and Narges Mohammadi. This unique audiobook focuses on a group of women who bake sweets as expressions of solidarity with those who are imprisoned. Shirazi's delivery captures each woman's dignity, pain, and strength. The effect is a powerful picture of the contemporary movement to contest the Iranian government's restrictions on women. Shirazi's measured narration allows each recipe and memory to unfold with weight and intention, inviting listeners into moments of sorrow and solidarity alike. Subtle shifts in tone distinguish reflective passages, storytelling, and unexpected humor. Shirazi's calm, clear approach creates space for the bakers' courage and creativity to shine.
