Lesly the Yellow Ladybird

In this book, a mixture of literary criticism and the author’s autobiography, through her passion for literature, Nafisi offers an assessment of her new home (the United States), after the author became an American citizen in 2008. Nafisi says: “Long before I made America my home, I lived inside its novels, poetry, music and films.” Since her immigration, she has been teaching literature at Johns Hopkins University in the United States.
