À propos de cet audio

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 classics. As Islamic morality squads staged arbitrary raids in Tehran, fundamentalists seized hold of the universities, and a blind censor stifled artistic expression, the girls in Azar Nafisi's living room risked removing their veils and immersed themselves in the worlds of Jane Austen, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Henry James, and Vladimir Nabokov. In this extraordinary memoir, their stories become intertwined with the ones they are reading. Reading Lolita in Tehran is a remarkable exploration of resilience in the face of tyranny and a celebration of the liberating power of literature.

Absolutely beautiful and heartbreaking work. A perfect example of way that reading can increase our empathy for those whose lives we cannot otherwise imagine. A celebration of the unbridled imagination and of the writers whose works were alive in the subjects of this novel. Read beautifully by the author. I will listen again and again.

For the love of a story
