Lowest Price Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books


Not only am I one of the last people in the world to read this book, I'm one of the few who didn't like it. And I really wanted to like it. I generally enjoy reading and learning about life in the Middle East but this book just did not grab me.

One problem was my fault - I haven't read all of the books she and her girls have and they played an important part of the story. But I also found the sequence of events confusing - it's not entirely chronological. I found Nafisi's writing style to be detached, almost arrogant and therefor I found myself not really caring what happened to her personally. I would have like to have known more about each individual girl in her reading circle.Get more detail about Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books.
