Marjane's propose to write Persepolis

As we all know, Persepolis is a kind of comic book, but also an autobiography. The author of the book is Marjane Starpi, and she compounds this two kinds of books together. It's about her childhood and teenage life. 
I think Pesepolis is not for kids to read. Through the book I can feel the emotion which is about sadness of a huge change of a country in a time period, and the feeling of leaving family, friends, and homeland. So I don't think it's for young kids to read. She uses comic because she uses a little girl's viewpoints. It just like a live thing: a poor little girl faces and watches every changing things about her country, and she also changes --- from knowing nothing about it to standing up to protect what she thinks is right. Her audiences will be the people who is interested in Persia, and Irian history about the Islamic revolution. Also for the people's life during that time period. For deeply, her audiences also can be the people who had to leave his family, friends and motherland. The deep emotion in this book only that kind people can understand well. 
Marjane tries to tell the audiences that the stuff happened during Islamic revolution in Iran, people's life and changing from a little girl. She tells us how people live in Iran, and their roles in the new society. 
I think she is very successful to write all her perposes in the book. When you read this book, you can feel like you are just in the scenes, and the emotions of the roles in this book. After you read this book, you can feel how the experiences of that specific girl changes herself so much. 
In my opinion, all the kinds of people who may be interested in Persepolis will find everything they are interested in. I have to say this is an excellent book, for lots of reasons. It is just like a documentary. A classic docmentary.
