شاهنامه (Shahnameh)
📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK
What can I sacrifice to protect my fading roots and culture?
📝ONGO's Reflection
My heart swelled at the sublime devotion of the old poet who gave fully thirty years of his life to revive the radiant myth and history of Persia. It is a miraculous work that shows how, when the mother tongue and pride of a people stood at risk of vanishing without a trace under foreign rule, a single vast epic could redeem the soul of a nation. I vividly witnessed the great power of literature, striving to remember the things that fade into oblivion, in defiance of forgetting.
