Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood (Alex Awards (Awards))
1 journaler for this copy...
The author/artist uses words and pictures to tell about growing up in Iran during and after the revolution and the Iran-Iraq war -- about being forced to wear a veil, about bombings, about a child's eye view of political prisoners in the family. It's a reminder of how fortunate we are to have political rights and to be far from geopolitical violence. Highly recommended.
