Well so far it has had its moments of humerous details but so far most of it to me is Marjane trying to become a prophet and why there is revelotionary war in thier time. Persepolis was set in the second millenium where people were semi-nomads who ancestors were Medes and Persians. In 1979 a revolution took place which was later on called "The Islamic Revolution." In the book beacuse of that revolution the year after the revolutin it was required to wear a viel to school. Before this they went to a french non-religious school. Now in this new school they were seperated from boys to girls. Marjane she was 10 so far from what I have read. Marjane grandpa was a prince. Marjane grandpa would often sometimes get sent to jail for no reason. I hope on reading the whole book it looks good so far well we will just have to see on that.
