Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Decoding Persepolis" takes the reader deep into Marjane Satrapi's "Persepolis: The Story of a Childhood," offering a comprehensive look into the memoir's exploration of character dynamics, themes, symbolism, and the overarching narrative. The guide begins by exploring Marjane's intricate relationships with her family and friends, which form the emotional backbone of the story. Throughout the memoir, Marjane navigates a labyrinth of conflicts, mirroring the tumultuous environment of revolutionary Iran. These conflicts range from internal struggles with faith and identity to confrontations with societal norms, the education system, and the broader political turmoil that envelops her country. This guide examines the author's use of potent symbolism throughout the narrative, using elements like the veil, keys to paradise, and cigarettes to convey repression, manipulation, and rebellion themes. The climax of the story is reached with Marjane's increasing rebellion against societal norms, leading to her parents' decision to send her to Austria. This moment of departure marks a significant transition in her life, symbolizing not just a physical departure but also a departure from childhood."Persepolis" provides a deeply personal glimpse into a critical period of Iranian history, inviting readers to reflect on the intersections of politics, family, and personal development. Through its exploration of Marjane's growth amidst political upheaval, "Decoding Persepolis" aims to enhance students' understanding of the memoir, unpacking Satrapi's complex themes and narrative strategies.

"When a war ends it does not go away," my mother says."It hides inside us . . . Just forget!" But I do not want to do what Mother says . . . I want to remember. In this groundbreaking memoir set in Ramallah during the aftermath of the 1967 Six-Day War, Ibtisam Barakat captures what it is like to be a child whose world is shattered by war. With candor and courage, she stitches together memories of her childhood: fear and confusion as bombs explode near her home and she is separated from her family; the harshness of life as a Palestinian refugee; her unexpected joy when she discovers Alef, the first letter of the Arabic alphabet. This is the beginning of her passionate connection to words, and as language becomes her refuge, allowing her to piece together the fragments of her world, it becomes her true home. Transcending the particulars of politics, this illuminating and timely book provides a telling glimpse into a little-known culture that has become an increasingly important part of the puzzle of world peace.
