The librarians tackle their first adaptation from an original graphic novel (or is it a comic book?), Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi. In this episode: What makes a graphic novel or comic book, and why should we read them? Why is it so hard to illustrate in black and white? What do Up, Legally Blonde, and Stepbrothers have in common? Does that discussion pertain at all to Marjane Satrapi?* And what other illustrated memoirs should you pick up if you love Persepolis?
*Hint: tangentially, yes.
