What is the author's style in Reading Lolita in Tehran, A Memoir in Books by Azar Nafisi?

The plot of Reading Lolita in Tehran is not linear. That is, it is does not follow the events of Nafisi's life in the sequence in which they occurred. Nafisi moves back and forth through time to draw parallels between events and evoke a response in readers. She often uses flashbacks—events that occurred before the actual story began—and episodes—descriptions of individual events—as part of the text.
