From the Times online

I remember when my mother explained to me about the Islamic Revolution in Iran and the wave of persecutions of the Bahá’ís that followed. We were in Liberia and I would have been seven. We were outside. The sun was shining through the bright green foliage of a coffee bush near by. It had red berries on it. I can’t remember what she said, but I remember the dawning understanding of what it meant, and her sadness in telling me about it.
