"Recollecting my Iran"

How do you survive repeated social revolutions during your lifetime when each upheaval affects every norm of personal conduct, social interaction and the politics around you? How do you survive displacement to a new country, which views the violence that you have fled as your sole representation and identity? How do you explain to your children and grandchildren how you feel, or who you are, when the country you belong to no longer exists except in the mind?
