Book 1
Why does American pop culture have such an influence
on Marjane and kids her age? Why are she and her family willing to take such
risks to have tapes, posters, and jean jackets?
What effect does the Iran-Iraq war have on daily life
in Tehran? How do people, including Marjane's parents, act differently?
Even when she is very young, Marjane is outspoken at
all times. How does this help her and hurt her in the new Iran? What decision
does it lead her parents to make?
Book 2
How do you think Marjane and her mother’s relationship
have changed since Marjane left Iran? Do you think they are closer or more
distant now that they live in different countries?
Why does Marjane finally decide to leave Iran? Do you
think she will follow her mother's instructions and never return?
Why do you think Satrapi ultimately chose to write
this book, and why did she write it in this visual way? What does the reader
gain from the graphic novel format?
