The brilliant graphic memoir of growing up in Iran during and after the Islamic revolution.
Marjane Satrapi lived through the Iranian Revolution as a little girl. This is her classic memoir-in-comic-strips, the story of a child entangled in the history and politics of her country. It paints an unforgettable portrait of growing up in revolutionary and war-torn Iran, in a family that was both outrageous and ordinary, beset by tragedy and yet buffered by love. Funny, wise, ultimately heartbreaking and told with unforgettable pictures.
?A revelation...you will remember it for a very long time?Mark Haddon
?The magic of Marjane Satrapi?s work is that it can condense a whole country?s tragedy into one poignant, funny scene after another? Independent on Sunday
