For two years before she left Iran in 1997, Nafisi gathered seven young women at her house every Thursday morning to read and discuss forbidden works of Western literature. They were all former students whom she had taught at university. They were unaccustomed to being asked to speak their minds, but soon they began to open up and to speak more freely, not only about the novels they were reading but also about themselves, their dreams and disappointments. Nafisi's account flashes back to the early days of the revolution, when she first started teaching at the University of Tehran amid the swirl or protests and demonstrations. Azar Nafisi's tale offers a fascinating portrait of the Iran-Iraq war viewed from Tehran and gives us a rare glimpse, from the inside, of women's lives in revolutionary Iran. 600 10 $a Nafisi, Azar. 650 0 $a English teachers $z Iran $v Biography. 650 0 $a English literature $x Study and teaching $z Iran. 650 0 $a American literature $x Study and teaching $z Iran. 650 0 $a Women $x Books and reading $z Iran. 650 0 $a Books and reading $z Iran. 650 0 $a Group reading $z Iran. 650 1 $a Women $x Books and reading $z Iran. 650 7 $a 05.15 reading. $0 (NL-LeOCL)169891364 $2 bcl 600 17 $a Nafisi, Azar. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00485047 650 7 $a American literature $x Study and teaching. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807254 650 7 $a Books and reading. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00836454 650 7 $a English literature $x Study and teaching. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00912180 650 7 $a English teachers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00912393 650 7 $a Group reading. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00948503 650 7 $a Women $x Books and reading. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176596 651 7 $a Iran. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204889 650 17 $a Leesgezelschappen. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Vrouwen. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Letterkunde. $2 gtt 600 17 $a Nabokov, Vladimir, $d 1899-1977. $0 (NL-LeOCL)068472862 $2 nta 600 17 $a Fitzgerald, F.
