Reading chapters 4-10 of Persepolis was just as interesting as the first 3. The emotion the author was able to portray through simple dialogue and black-and-white drawings is extremely impressive. In past readings I’ve done it usually takes a while for me to develop an emotional connection to the characters but Persepolis is the opposite. I immediately felt a connection to the story and quite frankly, it’s hard not to when seeing everything she went through at such a young age. It was also interesting to see her grow up throughout the story and mature. Being in that environment, she was forced to grow up much faster than a normal child which is sad but also impressive.
