Persepolis After Thought
Persepolis in my opinion was a much better book than Cather in the Rye. I think that the fact that it was a graphic novel added to its appearance and overall experience. Two of my favorite things about Persepolis were that it was a quick read and it actually had a rising action, climax, and falling action. Persepolis seems to be a book worthy of my term project. I think I am going to research the Iranian Revolution and see how the two stories match and what is different. Please let me know what you think of this idea. I will also discover how accurate her memory was from her adolescent years.

Derek I think I appreciated them equally. What I mean to say it that you can't compare apples and oranges, Persepolis and Catcher are two completely different books. Starting with the fact at one is a graphic novel the other is normal novel. Each have their aspects of greatness and of troubles. Overall they were both great.
ReplyDeleteHaha, I wasn't surprised to find out you liked this more than Catcher. I saw your comment on John's post about how much you hated it.
