Feature Story: Book launched at the House of Lords

Abstract

Britain’s upper house of Parliament is the setting for a most unusual book launch for University of Regina Press. Author Ramin Johanbegloo was invited to Britain’s upper house of Parliament to officially launch his book, “Time Will Say Nothing, A Philosopher Survives an Iranian Prison”, published by U of R Press. It’s Johanbegloo’s account of his imprisonment in his native Iran. He was arrested by authorities in April 2006 and held for four months. At the time, he found support from members of the House of Lords who called on Iran to release those who were unjustly detained.
