How to Read, and Why: Azar Nafisi's Reading Lolita in Tehran
Reading and Writing - A podcast by Michael Lavers
How should we read books? Why should we read them at all? To help us answer these questions, Claire and I turn to Azar Nafisi's Reading Lolita in Tehran, and talk about the freedom to read, reading for pleasure, escapism, why we get joy from reading about horrible things, the relationship between reading and moral instruction, the importance of talking and writing about what you read, and much more.
