Along the story's winding path it was not obvious how the heroine would find her way. She had to overcome loneliness and poverty in a foreign country; the clutch of the fundamentalist regime in her home country. Then came numerous dissapointments, dead ends and losses. How did she not give up completely? She had a rebelious resolve but that was often shaken and only gave her grief at times. She had her parents but sometimes they were far away or couldn't really help her. She didn't really have stable friends. It seems she had nothing constant in her life, nothing that permeated from childhood into adulthood that i could pinpoint as the reason she overcame all the trouble. While reading this comics i was rooting for her while having no answers to her problems. It's weird because usually when i read fiction i feel like i know the solution that i'd like to shout at the hero. But not here. Here the heroine taught me how to deal with all this life stuff. Cool. When I read a memoir like this, I feel a sense of gratitude towards the author. It's easy enough to share your triumphs. It's not even that difficult to share your foibles. But to actually share your mistakes, the things that made you feel shame, that is an act of courage. Even to admit to such things to an individual is hard. How much more difficult to tell the world? I not only have a greater insight into Iranian culture in the early 90s but feel more connected with my own humanity. Storia di un ritorno riprende a raccontare della vita di Marjane Satrapi proprio dove Storia di un'infanzia si era interrotto. Vediamo quindi Marjane alle prese con la sua (complicata) vita fuori dell'Iran. Se Storia di un'infanzia è stata una storia di resistenza e silente ribellione al regime integralista, Storia di un ritorno è la storia di molte perdite, che Marjane non si aspettava di dover affrontare nella laica e liberale Europa. A volte le aspettative son proprio delle grandi stronze... Così, insieme alla superficialità e alla saccenteria, all'integralismo religioso fuori dall'Iran e alla vita da esule, passerà anche attraverso esperienze comuni a molte adolescenti: sesso, droga, amore, amicizie più o meno strampalate e cambiamenti fisici che sembrano non volgere al meglio (le strisce che ne parlano m'hanno fatto morire dal ridere!). Mi è piaciuto tantissimo lo stile della Satrapi, sempre divertente e pungente nei confronti di ciò che non reputa giusto (la reazione alle offese della suora... impagabile!). Sono molto contenta che Emma Watson abbia scelto Persepolis per la lettura collettiva di giugno di Our Shared Shelf, facendomi finalmente decidere a leggerlo. Quest'anno si sta rivelando pieno di scoperte interessanti sul fronte graphic novel e saggi: bene, bene, bene!
Unlike the first book, it’s disjointed, tawdry, and unfocused. The story of her young adulthood doesn’t demonstrate the insight that made the first book so special. May Satrapi continue to blend the personal and the political to such extraordinary effect. Ultimately, Persepolis 2 provides another valuable window into an alien (yet all too human) way of life, but it's a far more difficult book than Persepolis. A child who lets her harsh environment interfere with her empathy for others is understandable and tragic, but an adult with the same problem borders on distressing solipsism. Satrapi's voice is very much her own, and the way the clash between European and Middle Eastern culture has played out in her life makes for compelling reading. What her book lacks, though, is perspective on the cultural revolution in which she and her circle lived (and sometimes died). Still, her rebellious stunts never undermine Satrapi's unconditional love for her troubled homeland—which, in these times of religious fervor and political gain, resonates all the more poignantly.
