Library copy checked out? No money to buy your own copy? Don't give up, read on.

Dr. Azar Nafisi, noted author, will be speaking at the College this Tuesday. For a preview, see Prof. Barb Adams' interview with her in the Ithaca Journal http://theithacajournal.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060831/ENTERTAINMENT01/608310324&SearchID=73255541208892

Her outstanding book Reading Lolita in Tehran is available to the College community as an electronic book, in the ebrary database which the College Library provides. You can get access to it on a computer, "read" it, highlight it, etc.

Here's a direct link:

Hint: If you want her autograph after you attend her talk Tuesday the 5th, 7 pm in the Emerson Suites, & you can't buy the book, you could print the title page from ebrary & ask her to autograph it.
