Persepolis
A dark time lighted by a little girl making it through her all to real reality graphic novel Persepolis. This is an excellent way of portraying through a more personal view point, the events that alter the courses of life for the people in country torn apart by war. Also pointing out the very illogical taught behaviors in human sociaty all the time bring the store closer to home.
