Americans should read this in school. I had no idea about so much recent history covered in this book.
Graphic: Confinement, Death, Torture, Violence, and War
Moderate: Child death, Misogyny, Sexism, Terminal illness, Police brutality, Religious bigotry, and Death of parent
Minor: Gun violence, Hate crime, Suicide, Islamophobia, Medical content, Medical trauma, Colonisation, and Classism
Content is focused on the details of growing up during the Islamic Revolution and the ensuing war between Iran and Iraq. Images show confinement, torture, and death, but avoid outright gore.
