Persepolis, lesson 8:
The push to go home
L.O. Understanding what makes Marjane
return to Iran & analyzing Marjanes
development
Starter
 Discuss how this first
panel (p.235) & the title
of the chapter (the
Veil) already
foreshadow what will
happen on the final
panel of the chapter.
Emotional overload - task
 Using emojis of your own creation, depict all the
emotions Marjane goes through on pages 235, 236
& 237 of the novel
Retrospect
 When Marjane looks back on her life
she can put Markus behavior in proper
perspective.
 Comment on the following panel 
cover the extensive voice over (and
voice under) as well as what the
images tell you  what is she showing
us exactly?
 What does this panel tell us about the
kind of novel we are reading?
Satrapis words:
 Human beings have a lot of problems identifying
themselves with other human beings who don't
resemble them exactly. But there's something about
drawing that means that anyone can identify to a
drawing. I mean, people can identify themselves
with Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse.
 Did she manage to make you identify with her
(former self)?
Can you do it? Confession time!
 Satrapi gives us the honest confession of her hard time on the
street and her shame in going back without having lived up to
her parents expectations. The panels on pages 240-246 show
us how tough her life was and how ashamed she felt.
 Think about the hardest / most embarrassing moment in you
teenage life, make a drawing that shows us this moment and /
or how you felt. Use the tools you have seen used in Persepolis
 emanata / voice over / graphic weight, amplification through
simplification etc
Emotional overload part 2
 People sometimes say there are no words to describe; one
of the most emotional panels in this chapter, however, becomes
most effective because it has words but no images.
 Describe how Satrapi creates an effect in her audience in these
2 panels.
Going home
 The final panel (splash) of
the chapter The Veil
shows us Marjane before
she leaves for home.
 What can you tell about
how she feels about going
home by looking at text,
colour and expression?
 How does this link to the
two cultures / countries she
is torn between?

Editor's Notes

  • #5: Discuss genre autobiography / coming of age story - add how it allows to see culture & cultural clashes + what makes the story universal, esp in feeling lonely in a new culture, growing up, needing people to depend on, etc. Also discuss character development and he added bonus of this being the actual story of a real life human being who openly shares her fears, hopes, embarassment.
