**THIS EPISODE CONTAINS FULL SPOILERS**

Do you know what a bandes dessinées is...? Well, neither did we, until now that is! Listen as we discuss Marjane Satrapi's autobiographical graphic novel, "Persepolis," which depicts her childhood up to her early adult years in Iran and Austria during and after the Islamic Revolution. We compare and contrast the book to its groundbreaking film adaptation of the same name, directed by Satrapi in conjunction with French artist Vincent Paronnaud. Aside from being a valuable history lesson on a topic that's rarely discussed in America, the movie is also a breathtaking piece of art, so please give this episode a listen!
