This week’s response will focus on reading the first half of The Complete Persepolis. Please answer both questions, quoting the author/illustrator (Marjane Satrapi) and giving page numbers in the citation.

1. In what ways does Marji’s religion conflict with her Westernized lifestyle? Who supports her ideas and who opposses them?

2. In this week’s reading, Marji sees the effects of the Revolution first hand and close to home. In what ways does this serve as a marker of transition from childhood to adulthood for the narrator?

Be sure to give specific examples for each question. QUOTE! I expect one full page response for each question (double spaced, 12 pt. type)
