Read Dangerously: The Subversive Power of Literature in Troubled Times by Azar Nafisi

challenging emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

5.0

Incredibly thought provoking. The most intimate and nuanced exploration of political thought and literature I have read so far. I would recommend this to everyone, and I have dog eared nearly every other page for stand out quotes to return to.

Content Warnings

Graphic: Misogyny, Torture, Forced institutionalization, War

I don't remember all the content warnings, as I've been reading this slowly, but this is a difficult read. If you make it at least halfway through, despite all the darkness it will give you hope.
