    Persepolis

    I finished reading in one stretch the delectable comicbook-autobiography of Marjane Satrapi, Persepolis. It tells in a very personable and affectionate voice the story of a young girl who grows up through the Revolution in Iran. The autobiography, as someone mentions in a review, is indeed a trendsetting piece as in a single swipe it is both a splendid work of illustration as well as a searing, unforgiving and yet proud look into Iran's history. I look forward to reading Persepolis 2.
