Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood by Marjane Satrapi

dark emotional informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

Very informative without being dry. I learned a lot about the Islamic Revolution, as well as the day-to-day life of the author as a rebellious young girl growing up during the revolution. The artwork and writing are so well done.

Although dark and heartbreaking, there's some humor infused through Marji's personality and perspectives.
