Persepolis, Marjane Setrapi, Iran
This is an essay written by Marjane Setrapi, the creator of Persepolis (both the graphic novel and Oscar nominated animated feature) who is living in exile in France. I was wondering what she thought of the protests in Iran, as she grew up during the Shah’s reign & the Islamic Revolution. Check out Persepolis on DVD if you can… it is wonderful!
