Book Review-"PERSEPOLIS-THE STORY OF A CHILDHOOD"
The comics
"Persepolis" published in June 2004. The author is Marjane Satrapi
was born in 1969 in Rasht. This comic draws and describes the author's memoir
of growing up in Iran during the Islamic Revolution. Marjane's family, such as
her mother, father, and uncle often attend political protests and support
revolutionaries when they can. Her story details the impact of war and
religious extremism on Iranians, especially women. The layout of this graphic
novel is super interesting and touching but also makes readers feel sad and
sorry. As we live in the 21 century, we do not experience the influence of war.
We do not have the experience to lose families and friends, and food shortage
during the war. Overall, I highly recommend this book. The author not only states
the cruelty of the war for the people but also informs us of the history of
Iran when they during the Islamic Revolution. We should cherish our present
life.
