Shiraz. Chapter 2

The euphoria was almost palpable. It hung in the Shiraz air like the sweet pollen of blossoming acacia trees. Khatami’s victory was not just a victory. It was a miracle, a violation of the laws of political physics. Seventy percent. A number whispered in bazaars and university lecture halls. A number that meant the unseen, silent Iran had suddenly found its voice. Zahra’s mother, Roxana, walked around the house with a smile Zahra hadn’t seen in years

Shiraz. Chapter 1

On that May day, Shiraz seemed to hold its breath. The air, thick with the scent of blossoming bitter orange trees, vibrated with unspoken anticipation. It wasn’t just a Friday, the sacred day of rest and prayer. It was the day of choice, and that very word, almost forgotten, was being spoken in kitchens and teahouses, sometimes in whispers, sometimes with a feverish glint in the eyes. Zahra walked between her parents, her hand lost in the large, warm palm of her father

Shiraz. Prologue

Sometimes, when the insomnia became unbearable, Zahra would read—not physics, not reports—she would read the strange, marginal blogs of Western intellectuals; it was like looking at another planet, a planet that Uncle Javad had invented in the living room of their old house in Shiraz, only he didn’t know he was inventing someone else’s future, and they don’t know they are living in someone else’s past

In accordance with the conclusion of the police investigation department, the death of citizen Rustam Yazdi, which occurred on 9 Ordibehesht 1402 (April 29, 2023), has been officially classified as a murder committed during an attempted robbery by unidentified persons. This version is supported by witness testimony (discovery of the body) and the absence of the deceased’s personal valuables at the crime scene (watch, wallet, mobile phone)

Two hours in the windowless room were like being in a non-existent space between two mirrors. Time here had lost its properties, turning into a viscous, uniform substance. The hum of the air conditioner was the only proof that the world outside these walls still existed. Zahra sat on the metal chair, her body stiff, having merged with the sterile, odorless interior. She constructed fractal sets in her mind, delving endlessly into their patterns

The three days following Rustam’s disappearance passed in a stupor. The official version was family matters, an urgent trip to Yazd to see his sick mother. But his desk had been cleaned out with the same thoroughness used to decontaminate radioactive material. And the note Zahra had found in the drawer burned in the pocket of her lab coat like a piece of enriched uranium. “Where is the house of my friend, O companions?”

They walked down an avenue, and Zahra looked at her daughters, and in her heart, tenderness mixed with a sharp, almost physical pain. Zeynab, still a child, walked holding her father’s hand, laughingly telling him something about a school play. And Nasrin… Nasrin was already on the other side of the invisible line that separates childhood from adulthood. She walked beside them, but her thoughts were far away. And, of course, he appeared. Adil

Spring came to Isfahan, but its arrival was a deception. The sun shone but gave no warmth; the apricot trees bloomed with a desperate, doomed beauty. The three months after Fordow passed like one long, gray day. Their report on the “unintentional singularity” had been accepted. The world pretended to believe it. But something had broken. The air in the research center had grown thick, viscous with distrust

The morning at Fordow began with silence. Not the resonant, working silence filled with the hum of centrifuges, but a different kind—tense, expectant, like the calm before a storm. Breakfast in the canteen was silent. Rezai ate quickly, looking at no one. Rustam crumbled sugar into his tea but didn’t drink. Zahra could feel the air vibrating with the unsaid. At 9:00, they were supposed to meet the inspectors at the entrance to Sector B-7. But an IRGC officer stopped them in the corridor

Fordow wasn’t just a facility. It was a wound in the body of a mountain, reaching ninety meters deep into the granite. A place where the human mind had forced stone to serve the most secret and terrible of its ideas. The air in the tunnel leading to the central hall was cold, with a taste of ozone and concrete, and felt as dense as water. Long rows of fluorescent lights on the ceiling hummed with a monotony that bored into the subconscious, crowding out all other thoughts
