Description:

Born in Tehran and educated in Switzerland and the Univ. of Oklahoma, thus setting some kind of record for cultural contrast, she taught English Literature at Tehran University and is now a fellow at Johns Hopkins School of International Studies. Like millions of admirers, I first heard of her with the publication of Reading Lolita in Tehran. We convened at Mark Twain House with musical guest Mamie Minch.
