Description: Reading Lolita in Tehran; A Memoir in Books by Azar Nafisi (2004 Trade Paperback). "Every Thursday morning for two years in the Islamic Republic of Iran, a bold and inspired teacher named Azar Nafisi secretly gathered seven of her most committed female students to read forbidden Western classic...they risked removing their veils and immersing themselves in the worlds of Jane Austen, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Henry James, and Vladimir Nabokov...a remarkable exploration of resilience in the face of tyranny and a celebration of the liberating power of literature." This book is extraordinary. It's one of those that does not allow you to return to the way you were before you started reading it. It is stunning. This copy is in acceptable condition. There is wear to the cover, there are creases (please see photos), but the interior is completely intact and unmarked.
