Abstract
In this contribution, Esther Claudio analyses three examples from Marjane Satrapi’s Persepolis, whose apparent simplicity problematises the stereotypes related to Western and Eastern cultures and to Iranian Muslim women. The contradictions which shape the author-narrator’s reality are conveyed with an ironic and subtle style which Claudio decodes through a close reading of the three illustrations.
