Persepolis

[the Story of a Childhood]
Nov 05, 2015Qwfwq rated this title 4 out of 5 stars
Very moving, We sometimes forget that history is not just a series of events, but people like you and me having to live through these events. The horror is there, but there is also a great deal of humour and irony. Satrapi does a great job of breaking everything down to the human level, giving the reader a vivid and authentic feeling of what it was like to be the kid who had to live through that nasty bit of history.
