The Complete Persepolis: Now a Major Motion Picture


<p>Here, in one volume: Marjane Satrapi's best-selling, internationally acclaimed memoir-in-comic-strips.</p> <p><i>Persepolis</i> is the story of Satrapi's unforgettable childhood and coming of age within a large and loving family in Tehran during the Islamic Revolution; of the contradictions between private life and public life in a country plagued by political upheaval; of her high school years in Vienna facing the trials of adolescence far from her family; of her homecoming—both sweet and terrible; and, finally, of her self-imposed exile from her beloved homeland. It is the chronicle of a girlhood and adolescence at once outrageous and familiar, a young life entwined with the history of her country yet filled with the universal trials and joys of growing up.</p> <p>Edgy, searingly observant, and candid, often heartbreaking but threaded throughout with raw humor and hard-earned wisdom—<i>Persepolis</i> is a stunning work from one of the most highly regarded, singularly talented graphic artists at work today.</p>
