Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood by Marjane Satrapi

5.0

Absolutely beautiful memoir, pulls no punches but makes moving parts behind Iranian regime shifts clear and concise. All the more enjoyable to read through the eyes of a young girl concerned with fitting in with peers and understanding God.

I would share with older high school students, especially in a study of human rights violations, the history of modern war, bildungsroman, the hero's journey, or autobiography.
