Persepolis 2: The Story of a Return
by Marjane Satrapi
Despite what a lot of people say, I enjoyed this installment just as much as the first one.
There were a few things that annoyed me. The biggest one was her reasoning for getting a divorce. It was like the relationship between an annoying YA couple. They refuse to talk to one another, so she gets a divorce as a quick fix after her husband proclaims his love for her and pleads for them to rekindle their relationship!
Also, the fact that she turned to drugs and fell into a "depression" was a little strange. There wasn't a reason for it. She just kind of did it.
Other than that I really enjoyed the story and the artwork. This was a very thought proving cautionary tale about religious extremism and its threat to freedom.
