ROAR book

The book that I am reading a memoir that is called Reading Lolita is Tehran.
About 7 girls in a book reading club. Each one of the girls has some kind of
problem each one different from the other. But they all shared a common
problem. The sexism that was occuring in Iran. One of the girls Sanaz;
had an obmoxious brother who always seemed to torment her. He didnt want
her to participate in the class being he too was one of those sexist pigs
in the Islam goverenment that was preventing women from Islam to
be treated as equals. All they did was degrade them and made them
feel bad. At least all these girls had something to look forward to
when they went to the class that was beign held in Azar Nafisi's house
the "teacher" of all these girls. They were reading a western book and discussed
the plot and setting of each book they read. These girls were incredibly smart.
And deserved being in this class
