Reading Lolita In Tehran by Azar Nafasi
* Vocabulary is included on homework hard copy.
*How can I create this other world outside this room? …We
follow Sanaz down the stairs, out the door and into the street...She walks
quickly and with a sense of determination. The streets of Tehran and other Iranian cities are patrolled
by militia, who ride in white Toyota patrols, four gun-carrying men an women,
sometimes followed by a minibus. They are called the Blood of God. They patrol the streets to make sure
women like Sanaz wear their veils properly, do not wear makeup, do not walk in
public with men who are not their fathers, brothers, or husbands.
