Reading Lolita in Tehran by Azar Nafisi

Reading Lolita in Tehran by Azar Nafisi

After losing her university teaching post under Iran's increasingly restrictive Islamic Republic, Nafisi invites seven female former students to her home each week to secretly read and discuss forbidden Western novels — Nabokov, Fitzgerald, Austen — works whose themes of individual freedom took on new, dangerous resonance under the regime's control.

Nafisi interweaves literary criticism with memoir, showing how these novels became a lens for the women to articulate their own suppressed experiences of living under a regime that severely restricted women's autonomy, dress and public expression.

An international bestseller, a powerful memoir of literature as resistance under authoritarian rule.
