In many ways Persepolis is both telling a story and commenting on the importance of stories in our lives. What do you think the book suggests about how stories shape and give meaning to Satrapi’s experience or to our experience? Consider referencing some of the stories in Persepolis—Uncle Anoosh’s story (“Moscow” and “The Sheep”), her grandfather’s story (“The Water Cell”), Niloufar’s story (“The Passport”)—to support your argument

• I think the stories shape and give meaning to Strapi's experience and ours beacuse, some of them we are still living today. For example the sheep, many people used to sheep to hide so they can cross the border. Mant poeple today do not use the sheep but do use other methods that have become very dangrous for many. The story the passport has probadly occurred to many people. either having someone sick and trying to find a way to  get way to fly all the way to where ur love one is before the wrost can happen. you get complications and you just can not do nothing about it and stay. and when you hear your love one has passed away you , not even knowing what you could have done would make you feel because it will to late. the stories she tells never end now with our experience.

  A reviewer in the L.A.Times wrote, “Although she may not have intended it, Satrapi has grown into her youthful dream of prophethood. She is a voice calling out to the rest of us, reminding us to embrace this child's fervent desire that human dignity reign supreme." Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Why? (Consider what caused Satrapi to lose her faith and how her desire to be a prophet might, or might not, have continued after her faith had eroded.)

• what Satrapi wanted, i want it sometimes too. i think life is so unfair! i dislike how things have changed with poeple and with feelings. i think poeple do not appreciate what they have and act in way that is unconsidered. she lost faith on being one for the fact that she saw how her uncle anoosh died.she was upset with god taking him. and upset of the poeple that had no hreat for him. She thought it wasn't fair that her maid had to eat at the kitchen. why did they even had a maid. how everything was going on Satrapi lost faith on things gettin better. as in for me, i lost faith on people actually being better people with each other for the way they act. its not chanigng for a good thing its going bad.

     What do you think the book suggests about social class in Iranian culture during this time period? Consider the stories of the maid’s forbidden love for the neighbor (“The Letter”) or in the distribution of plastic keys painted gold to the boys recruited into the army (“The Key”).   

• this book was all about social class. in the story of the maid as how they say there is no age in love well there should not be soical class in love either. its like how they say you can go out with most ugliest guy ever and be treated like a queen beacuse he should know well how to treat a women. you go out with the most cutest guy ever but be treated as hell! he might have the looks but not know how to treat a women. as well with money. all what should matter is the feeling. sure bet that the guy who decided not to talk to maid anymore for the fact she was a maid never met someone like her. the story of the key, they would only go for the poor guys for the fact that they promise them things they never had.
