Morteza Sarhangi, founder of the Office of Literature and Art of Resistance: Today, nobody waits for an invitation to document important events and Mr. Darabi came and spoke to Mohssen Kazemi and started publishing his memoirs. Mr. Darabi and the soldiers of the war and ... are witnesses and most credible in the field of oral history.
Mohsen Kazemi, author of "Coffee House Painting": Thank you Mr. Darabi for his 10 years of patience (the time of writing and producing this work); as he showed patience in the German prison for 15 years and 2 months; I also thank Soureh Mehr for fostering the grounds for us to focus on one book for 10 years.
Kazem Darabi, narrator of "Coffee House Painting": Art Department officials have promised the translation of this work will be released shortly.
Hojatoleslam Saeed Fakhrzadeh, head of the Oral History Department of the Islamic Revolutionary Library: The Westerns brought a lot of allegations against the Islamic Revolution. The publication of the book "Coffee House Painting" can help as a small measure to eliminate the stains of such allegations against the Islamic Revolution. The Islamic Revolution of Iran cannot stay hidden from the eyes of the world.[1]
