Persepolis is a beautiful example of the power and versatility of the graphic novel genre - a wonderful book to share with anyone who thinks graphic novels aren't "real" books, and views them as nothing more than oversize Archie comics!Janehttps://janekwhittingham.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22461753.post-34282231908481918752015-09-21T22:52:44.520-04:002015-09-21T22:52:44.520-04:00Ah!
