A fierce literary thriller" about an exiled woman confronting her past as a prisoner of a repressive theocracy ( Kirkus Reviews ).She was known as "Bait 455," the most famous prisoner in a ruthless theological republic. He was one of the colonels closest to the supreme commander. When they meet, years later, far from their country of birth, a strange, equivocal relationship develops between them. Both their shared past of suffering and old romantic passions come rushing back - accompanied by recollections of the perverse logic of violence that dominated the dictatorship under which they lived. French Iranian author Fariba Hachtroudi's prize-winning, "tightly plotted" novel "packs complex emotions in a small space, tackling difficult and essential questions about power and our responsibilities to one another" ( Kirkus Reviews )."The story leaves us chilled by the tyrannical culture that created this macabre bond. But at the end, it's just as much a tale of the capacity of love." - Minneapolis Star-Tribune "Timeless in its meditations on totalitarianism and the toll it takes on even those who physically escape its clutches." - Shelf Awareness (starred review)" | The Man Who Snapped His Fingers by Fariba Hachtroudi, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
