I'm reading "Then They Came for Me" by Maziar Bahari. Anybody else read this one?

I'm partial to biographies and am finding this one a good one.......

Don't want to give anything away but if you were in the same situation as the author what would you do? How would you handle the fear, the unknown?

I have not read the book myself, but I am familiar with the words which I have always found to be very moving and very true.
They were first spoken by Martin Niemoller, a conservative German Lutheran minister, at the end of World War II. the full text is:

"First they came for the Communists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew. Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me."

Enjoy your book.
