Persepolis
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.
Edgy searingly observant and candid often heartbreaking but threaded throughout with raw humor and hard-earned wisdom
?Persepolis
is a stunning work from one of the most highly regarded singularly talented graphic artists at work today.

"A memoir of growing up as a girl in revolutionary Iran
Persepolis
provides a unique glimpse into a nearly unknown and unreachable way of life.... That Satrapi chose to tell her remarkable story as a gorgeous comic book makes it totally unique and indispensable."
?Time
“Delectable... Dances with drama and insouciant wit.”
?The New York Times Book Review
“A stunning graphic memoir hailed as a wholly original achievement in the form. There’s still a starting freshness to the book. It won’t age. In inky shadows and simple expressive lines?reminiscent of Ludwig Bemelmans’s “Madeline”?Satrapi evokes herself and her schoolmates coming of age in a world of protests and disappearances... A stark shocking impact.”
?ParulSehgal “The 50 Best Memoirs of the Past 50 Years”
The New York Times
“A dazzlingly singular achievement.... Striking a perfect balance between the fantasies and neighborhood conspiracies of childhood and the mounting lunacy of Khomeini’s reign she’s like the Persian love child of Spiegelman and Lynda Barry.”
?Salon
“A brilliant and unusual graphic memoir.... [Told] in a guileless voice ... accompanied by a series of black-and-white drawings that dramatically illustrate how a repressive regime deforms ordinary lives .”
?
Vogue
"Odds are you'll be too busy being entertained to realize how much you've learned until you turn the last page.”
?Elle.com
“[A] self-portrait of the artist as a young girl rendered in graceful black-and-white comics that applies a childlike sensibility to the bleak lowlights of recent Iranian history. [Her] style is powerful; it persuasively communicates confusion and horror through the eyes of a precocious preteen.”

?The New York Times Book Review
"The most original coming-of-age story from the Middle East yet."
?People
"Elegant simple panels tell this story of growth loneliness and homecoming with poignant charm and wit."
?The Washington Post
"Humorous and heartbreaking ... A welcome look bound the headlines and into the heart and mind of one very wise wicked and winning young woman."
?Elle
"Every revolution needs a chronicler like Satrapi."
?San Francisco Chronicle
"It is our good fortune that Satrapi has never stopped visiting Iran in her mind."
?Newsweek
"Persepolis 2
is much more than the chronicle of a young woman's struggle into adulthood; It’s a brilliant painful rendering of the contrast between East and West between the repression of wartime Iran and the social political and sexual freedoms of 1980’s Austria. There's something universal about Satrapi's search for self-definition but her experiences in Vienna and Tehran are rendered with such witty particularity and such heartbreaking honesty that by the end of this book you'll feel you've gained an intimate friend."

Excerpt
INTRODUCTION
To the 20th Anniversary Edition
When
Persepolis
was first published in France in 2000 I was sure the world was headed in the right direction. There were no major wars and it seemed that humanity had somehow learned from its mistakes that in the twenty-first century we'd finally come to realize that the earth belonged to. Everyone equally and that we were one race?the human race.
Believing this I was certain the need for the book would fade over time That soon enough what I had written about?living through a revolution and a war and growing. up under the Islamic Republic of Iran's dictatorship?would feel like ancient history. Unfortunately I was wrong.
Persepolis
was released in the United States in 2003 in the aftermath of 9/11 and we Iranians had come to be considered part of the Axis of Evil. I was invited to appear across the country even at West Point where I spoke about the importance of differentiating between the Iranian people and the actions of the Islamic Republic and I became a vocal critic of the war in Iraq pointing out the hypocrisy of trying to instill democracy with bombs.
In the years since the book has been both beloved and banned. Banned for its sexual scenes (I still don’t know where those scenes are); for its torture scenes (because it's acceptable for assault rifles to be legal in the United States even if that frequently results in the murder of innocent people but it's not okay for a reader to see a single drawing documenting the torture of political prisoners) ; and more recently because of Islamophobia.
I take the book’s banning as a huge compliment. A banned book is always a good book. After all what better company to be in than Oscar Wilde and Mark Twain?
Now as I write this a new revolution is happening in Iran started by young women in response to the killing of Mahsa Amini. It's the first feminist revolution in which women and men are fighting together hand in hand for their freedom.
I am certain we will succeed.
Why am I hopeful?
First off at the time of the 1979 revolution that I describe in
Persepolis
only 40 percent of Iranians were literate; today more than 80 percent are. Second the digital revolution has allowed an entire generation unfettered access to information to be in touch with the world and to decide for themselves what they want to believe in. Third a dictatorship that is ready to accept reform is no longer a dictatorship. And finally the future of every country is its youth and this new generation is modern not sexist and aspires to freedom and democracy. Moreover they did not have to live through the trauma of revolution and war the way we did.
No country in the world has had as many revolutions as Iran. But this time the youth are not just educated; they are fearless in their opposition to gender apartheid and patriarchal culture which are the biggest enemies of democracy. Not only has the wall of fear fallen but fear has changed sides.
The young Marji I was certainly not leaving her country; she would surely stay and fight but at the time I wrote this book she couldn’t. Reading
Persepolis
today it’s clear how little the situation has changed?it’s people’s reactions that have evolved. Instead of running away from the bully we fight.
At the end of the book’s original introduction I wrote: “One can forgive but should never forget.” Twenty years later I would add: One also has to understand why this happened. Because if we know the answer we can stop history from repeating itself.
To the freedom of all wherever they may be.
