A review by kaceyyy
Persepolis I & II by Marjane Satrapi
Super insightful on the issues in Iran in the last 40 years, but more than that, this book was just how this shaped the writers life, how she dealt with being a woman in this society and from this country. She wasn’t perfect, and she constantly felt guilty and yet carefree, was principled but hypocritical, and I appreciate that she wasn’t a “model” revolutionary for the sake of the story, just like how in Iran she wasn’t a “model” woman, she was just a WOMAN. And I rlly appreciated that and found this veryyyyy interesting
