Annotation:
This edition collects the two volumes of Marjane Satrapi's critically acclaimed graphic novel memoir, a deeply personal child's-eye view of Iran during the fall of the Shah and a moving teenage coming-of-age story in the midst of xenophobia abroad and fundamentalism at home. Satrapi tells her complex story with a disarmingly open voice and a movingly simple visual style. This is a masterpiece of the graphic-novel form and not to be overlooked.

Praise
"Marjane Satrapi's PERSEPOLIS is the latest and one of the most delectable examples of a booming postmodern genre: autobiography by comic book....Contemporary American cartoonists tend often to operate in a twilight zone of ironically diminished expectation [while] PERSEPOLIS, by contrast, dances with drama and insouciant wit."
