Every bookworm and in particular, high school literature teachers should read this book about the importance of books in a democracy. I'm just read this book, in the age of Trump, when facts and reading don't count. So sad. Nafisi has hit the nail on the head, and this book made as much of an impact on me as her _Reading Lolita in Tehran.

Was a fan of the author's first book and knowing this one was about the power of books and imagination I knew that I'd love it. It was interesting to hear how Iran and America differ and are the same when consuming literature.
