Book Summary
Wise, often funny, sometimes heart-breaking, Persepolis tells the story of Marjane Satrapis life in Tehran from the ages of six to fourteen, growing up during the Iranian Revolution.The intelligent and outspoken child of radical Marxists, and the great-grandaughter of Irans last emperor, Satrapi bears witness to a childhood uniquely entwined with the history of her country. Persepolis paints an unforgettable portrait of daily life in Iran and of the bewildering contradictions between home life and public life.Amidst the tragedy, Marjanes childs eye view adds immediacy and humour, and her story of a childhood at once outrageous and ordinary, beset by the unthinkable and yet buffered by an extraordinary and loving family, is immensely moving.The magic of Marjane Satrapis work is that it can condense a whole countrys tragedy into one poignant, funny scene after another Independent on Sunday**ONE OF THE GUARDIANS 100 BEST BOOKS OF THE 21st CENTURY**
