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.Binding Type: Paperback

Prompt service
Excellent service and got my refund via e-gift card. My portable ac heat combo unit failed after almost 3 years of use and I was refunded my purchase price. It’s easier to claim using their chat support.

Amazing, effortless, easy!
Excellent experience! I made a claim and they immediately issued an Amazon gift card for reimbursement. Entire process from start to finish was probably 2 minutes or less. Amazing, effortless, easy! Will purchase again for any other items that qualify.

Best decision ever!
I purchased the protection plan to cover my heat press. I didn't think that I would need it nor ever use it but wanted to be sure I had some sort of warranty in place since I was spending a large amount of money. I did have to file a claim with Asurion and they were great to work with! They provided me with the assurance that I would not have to come out of pocket again to fix my machine. It is worth the money to get the coverage. You never know when you will need it.
