I really expected to like this book. I love learning about other cultures. However I just couldn't get past the focus on Lolita. Lolita is basically (in my opinion) about a pedophile and his victim. I sort of understand why these women choose the book but I expected more villification of Humbert. In the end their choice of books to discuss bothered me so much I decided not to finish the book. The few snippits of information about life in Tehran were interesting though.
