We desired to work on this amazing book that represents the ongoing struggles that many women still face in a patriarchal society. I was fortunate to work with three mentors, Elizabeth Acosta (an English instructor at EPCC) and Crisol Escobedo (a philosophy instructor at EPCC), and Maria Schrock (a history doctoral student at UTEP and instructor at EPCC) on Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books by Azar Nafisi. In preparing for this interdisciplinary activity presentation, we aspired to look at the importance of literature to women, and the real world issues that women face in society. In each part, it is a memoir of Azar Nafisi’s own memories of reading literature in the privacy of her own living room with a few of her chosen female students. This book is broken into four parts: Lolita, Gatsby, James, and Austen. The book we chose was Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books-an account based on real life events of Azar Nafisi during Iran’s Islamic revolution and in the Islamic Republic of Iran. In the spring of 2019, we decided to organize a presentation on a literary work to show others this vital connection between words and the world.
