Marjane’s Uncle who fled to the USSR after Fereydoon is caught and executed for opposing the Shah. He returns to Iran to see his family but, though disguised, gets imprisoned. He becomes a role model for Marjane, who considers him a hero. However, after the revolutionaries take full power they again arrest Anoosh (just because he was anti-Shah does not mean his views accord with the new regime’s). He gets sent to prison again and executed, but not before Marjane gets to speak to him one more time in jail and he gives her a second bread swan.
