In the two decades following the Khomeini Revolution, while the streets and campus of Tehran were the scene of tremendous violence, Azar Nafisi had to try one of the most difficult tasks: to teach western literature to a generation increasingly exposed to Islamic catechesis. The result is one of the most touching acts of love for literature ever professed, which also represents a magnificent mockery played against those who try to ban it.
