I love this book and I'm glad that we have included this book into our course. The second part of the book is more intense than the first part. Since she had to leave Iran to Vienna and started to grow up to teenager and adult alone in different country. I think it must be hard for her to do that alone. She might lost her way for a while but because she was too young and she didn't have anyone to tell her what is right and wrong, she had to learn those by her mistakes. She didn't really have anyone to be there with her like back in Iran where her parents would be right by her side. As the result of what she been through, I believe that made her became a stronger person.
Because of how the culture is very conservative, many young girls and guys aren't able to get to learn each other so either they are married by arrangement or just get married without really know each other as well. So for Marjane who has a strong personality would be hard to keep her marriage but for many others can manage to keep their marriages because most of time girls were taught to be listened and followed. Their culture is patriarchy where male is dominated.
