I really loved Reading Lolita in Tehran and after a few chapters of this book I'm totally hooked. Wonderful writer, fascinating life. Can't wait to read more!

I absolutely loved. loved this book. It is true that truth is stranger than fiction and this book is really fascinating. Hard to imagine in a real fictive book a character like Azif's mother, she was just way too over the top but somehow you just had to sympathise with her. And Nafisi can write and bring alive all the clours, flavours and feelings of her childhood, the beauty of reading. At the same time she tells vividly about her native country, the turbulent and violent events and this all the time with immense love for her country and its rich history.
