It quickly captured my attention with the simple black and white drawings. The unique approach of a graphic novel to a very serious topic was refreshing (On second thought, it might not be unique but this is the first autobiographical graphic novel I've read so it's definitely unique for me). Her narration as the young Marji actually did sound like a child, an endearing touch for me. I found it amazing the way Satrapi was able to narrate such a deep story about the political chaos experienced by Iran, with just the right combination of lightness, humor and heart.
