Pantheon took a risk in publishing Persepolis in the United States, where adult comic books are rarely taken seriously Maus being the notable exception. With minimalist black and white drawings in small boxes, Satrapi tells the story of growing up in a bourgeois but radical family that originally welcomes the revolution against the Shah only to fall victim to the fanaticism of the mullahs and the ravages of the long war with Iraq (Pantheon Books, 160 pages, $17.95).
