Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood by Marjane Satrapi 🔖🔖🔖


This book has a resume! 

A graphic novel describing how it was like growing up during the Islamic Revolution in Iran.

This book was fascinating. I'm not a graphic novel fan, but I'm glad I made the exception here. I do, however, feel again the stark reality that I am completely ignorant and privileged. And I don't know what to do about it, other than learn more. This book was a good start in that direction.
