I really found the second half of Persepolis to be very interesting, I think it really showed how strong of a person Marjane could be even when she goes through hard times. Section two started off with Marjane moving to Austria to go to school because she was no longer welcome in her school in Iran. She moves from place of living to place of living but she still finds ways to keep moving forward even when she was faced with obstacles. I also really like how Marjane gained so much confidence as the stores progress. This can be shown when Marjane is in her second part of the exam to get into art school and she just tells the truth instead of reciting what she was suppose to, which ended up working out in her favor. She also shows her confidence when she is at the assembly about the new dress code and she spoke out about the unfairness of the dress code which also ended up working out for her, she got to revamp the dress code.
