The Crimson Shadow by Mohammad-Amin Farajollahi is a meticulously researched account of the clandestine operations of Iran’s Tudeh Party between 1974 and 1983. Drawing on archival documents, personal testimonies, and internal party records, the book traces the evolution of the party’s underground network, its ideological roots in Leninist doctrine, and its covert infiltration into Iran’s post-revolutionary military and intelligence institutions. Structured in seven chapters—including “Lenin’s Legacy,” “The Young Tudeh Cadres,” and “Red Penetration”—the book offers a nuanced portrait of the party’s dual identity: public moderation and secret radicalism. It is an essential resource for scholars of Iranian political history, leftist movements, and Cold War-era espionage.
