Persepolis, Volume 2 by Marjane Satrapi
The Story of a Return
A young woman returns to Iran after years abroad and confronts the suffocating effects of war, religious repression, and social hypocrisy as she comes of age; torn between a Westernized sense of independence and family and cultural expectations, she endures loss, censorship, strained relationships, and the arrest of friends while searching for identity and the freedom to pursue her art, ultimately deciding to leave again in search of autonomy.
