"Persepolis" - anyone read this?
I just got this in the mail today. I have to read it for a class, but after 50 pages I'm hooked. I'm a huge fan of the "Maus" books, and this reads similarly.

Anyone?

1. You're not surprised that I have, are you?
Literary twin.

There's a Persepolis 2 but I don't have it yet. :D

3. Heehee. Not really.
I chose this one to read for my World Civ class. We had to pick a 20th century memoir out of a few choices. I'm glad I picked this one.

2. I picked it up and read through it in a bookstore.
I thought it was very good.

4. Oh I haven't read it but I heard the author interviewed on NPR.
I didn't write down the name of the book and now you've just given me one more thing for the holiday list from hell. Double thanks. :)
