This week's theme, How to Survive a Crisis, is inspired by an amazing non-fic graphic novel, now turned into a film!

One girl, the beloved only child of progressive parents, is sent to school in Austria. This is the story of her childhood, growing up in a time of war and revolution. Her parents hope that she'll escape what they see as Iran's oppressive regime. Together, she and her country must decide who they're supposed to be and who they actually are.

The girl's name — Marjane Satrapi.

The book — Persepolis.
