There are various suggestions for further reading, depending on what interests you. The book title reminded me of ''Reading Lolita in Tehran'' by Azar Nafisi. Some modern novels for Jane Austen fans are [[Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith]], [[Acting Up by Melissa Nathan]] or [[The Importance of Being Emma by Juliet Archer]]. If you like reading letters and diaries, [[Nella Last's Peace: The Post-war Diaries of Housewife 49 by Patricia Malcolmson (Editor), Robert Malcolmson (Editor)|Nella Last's Peace]] is based on the post-war diaries of an ordinary woman in England. Mary Dora Russell's [[Dreamers of the Day by Mary Doria Russell|Dreamers of the Day]] is a historical novel set in the Middle East in the 1920s which offers an insight into the background of the present day's politics.
