One Book, One Campus

Cole Library’s third annual One Book, One Campus, One Community project features Persepolis 2, a graphic novel by Marjane Satrapi. In Persepolis, heralded by the Los Angeles Times as "one of the freshest and most original memoirs of our day," Satrapi dazzled us with her heartrending memoir-in-comic-strips about growing up in Iran during the Islamic Revolution. Here is the continuation of her fascinating story. For more information, click here. Copies of the book are available at Cole Library.
