Persepolis book Reflection

In the book of Persepolis we read about a girl named Marji who lived in Iran and experienced the Iranian revolution that started in 1979 and ended in 1988. Through the book of Persepolis she talked about all the laws that were enforced on them like how women always had to wear veils. This law was established in 1980 right after the revolution started. She also talks about when the shah left which was in 1974. She also talked about how at her school they would put her and her class meats and they would martyr there breaths for all the dead people. She also talked about how the boys and girls had to be separated from each other at school this also started after the war started in 1980.In the book she talked about how they had to clandestine from there neighbors because of all the entertainment that was banned in there country if a neighbor saw them they would denounce them and they would probably die since they had party’s all the time.
Through this book Marji had a lot of experiences that really opened her mind about everything she believed in. In one chapter that was called The Letter she said how she was ashamed to get dropped of at school in her fathers Cadillac and I think that being decadent wasn’t something part of her. Marji wasn’t a Proletariat person because she didn’t let her dads nice car get to her head and be superficial. Marji was more like her mom; secular because her family didn’t believe everything that there country had as laws like women having to wear a veil or not to be able to have any type of entertainment in there homes. Something else that shaped her was that every time they heard a siren all of her family and her would go down to there basement were all there reservoir for a few days was at just in case they were really in danger.
I think that when Marji moved to Vienna her life took a total change on her. I think that once she got there she was sad for a while but then she got over it. I also think that that because of what was happening in her country her parents died. I also think that her mom died because she was depressed because Marji had to leave the country in order to be safe and I think that her father was the only one that cached up with her in Vienna .He was the one who took care of her.
