Persepolis 2: The Story of a Return by Marjane Satrapi

5.0

I loved both Persepolis graphic novels. However, this was felt more personal and was harder to read. The first one was definately sad and captivating seeing how Iran was changing from the Islamic Revolution [Iran-Iraq War]. This though, it was hard to see how she was struggling with indenity in Austria. Then, when she went back to Iran it was hard for her to adjust to freedom being taken away. The ending was probably the best thing for her. This was very eye opening, and I will think about this for a long time.
