The history is narration of possibilities
Documentaries are not of the same nature
The essence of narration and documentation of memories is independence

Abdulhamid Qaradaghi, Managing Director of Sureh Mehr Publications: This work is one of the important books of the Department of Art.
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]

A Review of the Book “Brothers of the Castle of the Forgetful”: Memoirs of Taher Asadollahi
"In the morning, a white-haired, thin captain who looked to be twenty-five or six years old came after counting and having breakfast, walked in front of everyone, holding his waist, and said, "From tomorrow on, when you sit down and get up, you will say, 'Death to Khomeini,' otherwise I will bring disaster upon you, so that you will wish for death."Tabas Fog
Ebham-e Tabas: Ramzgoshayi az ja’beh siah-e tahajom nezami Amrika (Tabas Fog: Decoding the Black Box of the U.S. Military Invasion) is the title of a recently published book by Shadab Asgari. After the Islamic Revolution, on November 4, 1979, students seized the US embassy in Tehran and a number of US diplomats were imprisoned. The US army carried out “Tabas Operation” or “Eagle’s Claw” in Iran on April 24, 1980, ostensibly to free these diplomats, but it failed.An Excerpt from the Memoirs of General Mohammad Jafar Asadi
As Operation Fath-ol-Mobin came to an end, the commanders gathered at the “Montazeran-e Shahadat” Base, thrilled by a huge and, to some extent, astonishing victory achieved in such a short time. They were already bracing themselves for the next battle. It is no exaggeration to say that this operation solidified an unprecedented friendship between the Army and IRGC commanders.A Selection from the Memoirs of Haj Hossein Yekta
The scorching cold breeze of the midnight made its way under my wet clothes and I shivered. The artillery fire did not stop. Ali Donyadideh and Hassan Moghimi were in front. The rest were behind us. So ruthlessly that it was as if we were on our own soil. Before we had even settled in at the three-way intersection of the Faw-Basra-Umm al-Qasr road, an Iraqi jeep appeared in front of us.
