## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent
*by A***E on 27 April 2012*

Publisher: vintage booksGenre: autobiography/graphicISBN: 978-0-099-52399-4This book is written as a storyboard and the style suits it perfectly. I have never read a book written using this method but I found it to be a very enjoyable experience. For this particular book it works extremely well as it carries the volume of dialogue, if this had been written in straight prose it would have resembled a play rather than a novel.Marjanes general writing style is warm and inviting. As she narrates her story you can hear her voice and it brings the action to life. She captures the horrors of war and the difficulties of love in a style which makes all the subjects in this book seem very real to the reader. I have never been to Iran but I could connect with Satrapi and understood he point of view because it was explained so well and so easily.This book gave me a totally new perspective of muslim women and what they may have been thinking while living under oppressive regimes. Young Iranian girls are not so different to European girls once stripped down to just their thoughts and emotions.A very cleverly written book on a subject which I normally would not read, excellent.Personal read 5/5Group read 4/5 Plenty to discuss but not everybody's choice of subject.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Important, and thought provoking
*by L***D on 28 December 2024*

An interesting introduction to an area of history that’s not always understood; definitely one of my favourite reads of the year.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A personal political history from times of freedom to suppression, told from a child's then woman'spoint of view.
*by M***N on 24 December 2015*

"Persepolis" by Marjane Satrapi, is a personal and historical graphic novel of a time in Iran, a country which was called Persia for thousands of years; revealing the events from a clever child and then a young woman's point of view, as she grows up with the political situation expanding and evolving, & she was sophisticated beyond her years because of the good education, and also because of her families' multi involvement and input, experienced by so many of her family. It is a brilliant novel because of the multi-faceted approach, revealing the whole story of Iran in the 20th century and the upheavals and horror of political fundamentalist power and complete suppression and control on members of the whole family, but at first seen through the eyes of a child with her own childish ego, as she want to put the whole world to rights as a prophet: something that many a clever child of imagination has dreamed of doing- "putting the world of stupid adults to rights", suffering mentally and physically under this power, and eventually growing up and learning to live with things as they are, until they gradually change again.
