The Complete Persepolis

Marjane Satrapi’s The Complete Persepolis, published by Pantheon beginning in 2007, collects her acclaimed graphic memoir of growing up during the Iranian Revolution. Satrapi’s stark black-and-white artwork and first-person narrative chronicle her childhood in Tehran and her adolescence in Europe, offering an intimate, humanizing perspective on a turbulent era. This single-volume edition, with contributions from Blake Ferris and Mattias Ripa, remains a landmark work that brought autobiographical comics to a global audience.
