I Remember Beirut by Zeina Abirached

3.0

Zeina Abirached was grew up in Beirut in the 1980s amid fighting between Christians and Muslims that divided the city.

The art is reminiscent of [b:The Complete Persepolis|991197|The Complete Persepolis (Persepolis, #1-4)|Marjane Satrapi|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1327876995l/991197._SX50_.jpg|13344769], and the stories are similar—finding normalcy within a war zone.
