The importance of the drawing in Persepolis.

The drawing in book Persepolis is as important as what writer write in the book. Therefore the book tell us the story and the thoughts about the characters in the book, and the drawing shows us the psychological activity of the characters. We can find out what they feel and their emotion by looking at the drawings. For example, in the third page, we can know that most of the children in the school don't like to wear the veil, because all their faces are looking sad and we can see anger from some of them in their eyes. Also the drawing can be the trastition for the story. Just like what we saw in the first two drawings, because of that girls are unhappy about wearing a veil, they use the veil to do silly things or even throw them on the ground in the fifth drawing on page 3. I think the first picture writer draw on page 52 is really important, because it show us a 6 years girl's idea about torture and waht she thinks that when people was cut into pieces. Therefore it makes the whole story become more realistic and it let us know a different sespective from a 6 years old girl who lives in Iran and have lots of experiement which normaly the girl in her age doesn't have. For the example, the demonstration in Iran and the death of people near her. Also this drawing become a transition to the rest of the story. It will show us how Marjane was changed when she grows up by the contrast between this picture and the picture in the 116 to 117. We can tell that Marjane grows up and change her feeling about people and death. As you can see in the book the drawings are as important as the words write on the book, and it really help us to understand the book well.
