Persepolis Blog 1

             They had to wear a veil because it became a law during the revolution. Marjane's mother was at one of the demonstrations and a German Journalist took a photo of her. Marjane said she was really proud of her mother's photo which was published in all the European newspapers. That photo caused for her mother to get really scared and she even died her hair blonde and would wear dark glasses for a long time. Marjane wanted to be a prophet because God had chosen her. These were his words, "  Yes you are celestial light, you are my last and my best choice." Her relationship with God was really close and she would have a big discussion with him every night before she would go to bed. Marjane learned that her grandfather was a prince, but he got sent to jail and now that she asks her grandmother for him she doesn't answer and changes the subject. Marjane's father also told her that he would get sent to jail often or he would either be put in a cell filled with water for hours.
