Embroideries

A single, standalone graphic novel from Pantheon, Embroideries presents a series of intimate, after-dinner conversations among a group of Iranian women. Written and drawn by Marjane Satrapi, the book offers a candid, humorous, and revealing look at love, sex, and marriage from a female perspective, expanding on the cultural themes explored in her earlier work. Its unflinching yet warm portrayal of private lives makes it a significant contribution to autobiographical and women's comics.
