As a title that has continued to be a subject of controversy, it is worth highlighting the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund’s resources on Persepolis.

dark emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad fast-paced

5.0

This book is beautiful, sad and haunting, it is so much more than a memoir of one single person and in fact a memoir of a gender, of a generation, and it is both inspiring and scary to see how much this person overcame in her lifetime and how much she fought and how far she came despite all the challenges she faced. I can't say much about this, I don't feel well equipped to, just, please, read this book if you're reading this, it will change your life.

this was a really easy to read and insightful novel. I don't know much Iranian history, so I learnt a lot about this.
