In powerful black-and-white comic strip images, Satrapi tells the story of her life in Tehran from ages six to fourteen, years that saw the overthrow of the Shah's regime, the triumph of the Islamic Revolution, and the devastating effects of war with Iraq. The intelligent and outspoken only child of committed Marxists and the great-granddaughter of one of Iran's last emperors, Marjane bears witness to a childhood uniquely entwined with the history of her country. Persepolis paints an unforgettable portrait of daily life in Iran: of the bewildering contradictions between home life and public life and of the enormous toll repressive regimes exact on the individual spirit. Marjane's child's-eye-view of dethroned emperors, state-sanctioned whippings, and heroes of the revolution allows us to learn as she does the history of this fascinating country and of her own extraordinary family. Intensely personal, profoundly political, and wholly original, Persepolis is at once a story of growing up and a stunning reminder of the human cost of war and political repression. It shows how we carry on, through laughter and tears, in the face of absurdity. And, finally, it introduces us to an irresistible little girl with whom we cannot help but fall in love. 521 8 380|bLexile. 546 In English; translated from the French. 600 10 Satrapi, Marjane,|d1969-|vComic books, strips, etc. 600 10 Satrapi, Marjane,|d1969- 600 17 Satrapi, Marjane,|d1969-|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00484303 611 27 Revolution (Iran : 1979)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01354530 648 7 1900-1999|2fast 650 0 Iranians|y20th century|vBiography|vComic books, strips, etc. 650 1 War|xPsychological aspects. 650 1 Coming of age. 650 1 Cartoons and comics. 650 7 Iranians.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00978818 650 07 Comic books, strips, etc. 651 0 Iran|vBiography|vComic books, strips, etc. 651 0 Iran|xHistory|y1979-1997|vComic books, strips, etc. 651 0 Iran|xHistory|yRevolution, 1979|vPersonal narratives |vComic books, strips, etc. 651 1 Iran|xHistory|yRevolution, 1979|vComic books, strips, etc. 650 17 Islam.|2gtt 651 7 Iran.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204889 655 7 Young adult works.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01726790 655 7 Fiction.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 Graphic novels.|2lcgft 655 7 Comic books, strips, etc.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423722 655 7 Graphic novels.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01726630 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 Comic books, strips, etc.|2gsafd 655 7 Graphic novels.|2lcsh 655 7 Young adult fiction.|2lcsh 914 MID.b15459913 914 FARM244273 994 C0|bCKE
