Growing up female in Iran during the reign of the Shah, through the 1979 Revolution, and then the Iran-Iraq war, was not an easy thing.
In an autobiographical novel using black-and-white comic-strip drawings, bubble dialogue and captions, Marjane Satrapi brings to life in a 'graphic memoir' her girlhood in Tehran. Marjane joins Jenni to explain why she wanted to set the record straight about the true nature of Iran and its people.
