We bring you a show devoted to Iranian writer Azar Nafisi, author of the critically acclaimed memoir “Reading Lolita in Tehran”. In 1981, Nafisi was expelled from teaching at the University of Tehran for refusing to wear the Islamic veil and eventually left Iran for the US in 1997. She’s been speaking to FRANCE 24’s Fatimata Wane at the Taormina book festival in Italy, where she was given an award.
