Collections: Reading Lolita in Tehran
About Sanaz, continued from yesterday’s reading.
*If she gets on a bus, the seating is segregated. She must enter through the rear door
and sit in the back seats, allocated to women. Yet in Taxis, which
accept as many as five passengers, men and women are squeezed together like
sardines, as the saying goes, and the same goes with minibuses, where so many
of my students complain of being harassed by bearded and God-fearing
men. ..How much of this experience affect her? Most probably, she tries to distance
her mind as much as possible from her surroundings.
