I doubt that the powers that be in the Islamic Republic of Iran would allow women to appear in public w/o headscarves. I also doubt that the powers that be in Iran would permit mixed groups of men and women unrelated to one another to appear together in a theatre to watch a dance performance of a lithe young female dancing. If in Iran such activities are permitted then the Islamic Republic has changed a lot since the author left Iran.

If you doubt it then investigate. You can start by reading the book one of the other ladies mentioned, Jasmine and Stars: Reading More Than Lolita in Tehran (Islamic Civilization and Muslim Networks) by Fatemeh Keshavarz, I definitely intend on reading it.

Interesting. I've read Reading Lolita in Tehran and love it - however, I did not get the assumption that the women in the book were a homogeneous mass (in fact, some of Nafisi's students were feisty and different to each other). Of course the Iranian women experience is not mine to speak of, and I may also have fallen for Nafisi's "propaganda". I think she's a great woman though, and I wish I had a professor like her.
