ComiClub Graphic Novel Book Club

Willow Branch Library

Whether you can name every Robin from memory or you liked that one episode of Watchmen on HBO, the ComiClub is here for you!

For April, we will be reading and discussing Persepolis 2: The Story of a Return by Marjane Satrapi. This program is open to teens and adults.

Persepolis 2 synopsis:

In 1984, Marjane flees fundamentalism and the war with Iraq to begin a new life in Vienna. Once there, she faces the trials of adolescence far from her friends and family, and while she soon carves out a place for herself among a group of fellow outsiders, she continues to struggle for a sense of belonging.

Finding that she misses her home more than she can stand, Marjane returns to Iran after graduation. Her difficult homecoming forces her to confront the changes both she and her country have undergone in her absence.
