Publisher's Summary

In the tumultuous backdrop of Iran in 1979, where revolution left lives and homes in ruins, Hammer—a fourteen-year-old navigated the inferno of both streets and shattered dreams. In the ruthless crossfire of inhumane politics and a society torn at its seams, Hammer is conscripted into the army, forced to grapple with the stark reality of sacrificing his life for a cause he rejects.

With choices dwindling, our daring protagonist initiates a meticulously crafted escape plan. Hammer's journey unfolds with identity swaps and secret moves, unveiling the intricate dance of survival and the profound cost of freedom. As fear and hope intertwine, you are beckoned to delve into the depths of courage, fear, and the relentless pursuit of freedom.

“I Ran to Escape,” a gripping tale penned by Hammer, transcends the mundane. It captures the essence of survival, resilience, and the indomitable spirit that refuses to wilt in the face of adversity. Hammer's narrative promises a visceral experience—a rollercoaster ride through the highs and lows of a life lived on the edge, where escape metamorphoses into a profound awakening of the soul.

Embark on an unforgettable journey with Hammer, where the flames of revolution pale in comparison to the fervor of a spirit that refuses to be extinguished.
