Description

Monochrome is the title of a book written by Shapur Bakhtiar, the last Prime Minister of the Constitutional monarchy in Iran, first written and published in 1982 in French under the title: Ma fidelite (meaning loyalty) and its primary purpose was to inform non-Iranians about The events of the Iranian Revolution (1978).

This book, after some time under Bakhtiar’s supervision, was translated into Persian by Mahshid Amirshahi, an Iranian writer and journalist, entitled “Monochrome”.

Bakhtiar considers this book as a service that he has done to enlighten the minds of foreigners while fighting relentlessly against the enemies of Iran.

All rights to the author of this book have been donated to a charitable foundation.

Summary of Shapur Bakhtiar’s monochrome book
The Shah told me a few days before his departure from Iran:

“I can not stand the writing of vulgar words about me on the walls.”

I [= Bakhtiar] answered:

“If His Holiness gives me five or six days, this situation will change.”

That night I told TV reporters:

“With the exception of Mossadegh’s short term as prime minister,

For forty years, there has not been a prime minister in Iran who has the courage to take on all his responsibilities.

Today I have to tell you that I take on all the responsibilities.
If things go awry, you have to attack me.

I do not take refuge behind any official, the government is responsible to the nation.

Five days later, the king said to me:

“They do not write anything against me on the walls anymore, but your service is good !!”

“The rule is the same,” I replied.

I do not think anyone has said that to him in the past.
