 I agree with many of the comments here- I really enjoyed Persepolis. Again, I found that I did not always pay attention to the images, but I liked that I was learning something in addition to being drawn into an interesting story. At first I was somewhat put off by the simplistic dialogue, but then I asked myself, would I actually want to read and would I understand and process the material had it been presented in a textbook-like form? No, I most likely would not have. It was an easy read, I learned about conflicts in and surrounding Iran, and I retained what I read.
