Abstract
In the autobiographical comic book Persepolis, Marjane Satrapi combines the themes of coming of age and the search for identity with a depiction of the Islamic revolution that led to a radical cultural change in Iran. The choice of a comic as a medium for conveying the memories of youth emphasizes the inseparability of the cultures of the East and the West, between which the heroine is suspended. The intercultural dimension of Satrapi‘s work is manifested through the form of the story, the outline of the cultural confl ict in Iran in the 20th century, and the cultural shock after the heroine‘ s arrival in Europe.
