Book Review of Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books

Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books
reviewed on


I really enjoyed the first part of the book and was reading it on a camping trip-unfortunately, I was sitting in a chair in the river and when I was climbing up onto the bank, I looked down and saw that my book had fallen and was soaking wet and unsalvageable. I need to get another copy but I would encourage those interested in reading it to do so. It is thought provoking and interesting to learn of another culture and the risk these women took to just read classics together. The thoughts and insights of the author, as I said, are very thought provoking. If you like other cultures and thought provoking discussions about women-go for it!
