This book sounds great; about young women in an oppressive society meeting for an illicit book club. I thought I'd really like it, but I really didn't. It was very pretentious and is overrated. I learned a bit about Iranian history, but not as much as I had hoped and I felt like the book was a bit of an excuse for an Iranian author to capitalize in the current fascination with the middle east.
