Adult (18+)
7:00PM—8:30PM at Decatur
Persepolis: The Story of A Childhood by Marjane Satrapi. Come join us in the meeting room on the ground floor to talk about Marjane Satrapi's graphic memoir.
From Publisher's Weekly:
Satrapi's autobiography is a timely and timeless story of a young girl's life under the Islamic Revolution. Descended from the last Emperor of Iran, Satrapi is nine when fundamentalist rebels overthrow the Shah. While Satrapi's radical parents and their community initially welcome the ouster, they soon learn a new brand of totalitarianism is taking over. Satrapi's art is minimal and stark yet often charming and humorous as it depicts the madness around her.
