"Persia on the Pacific" by Tara Bahrampour

     I had never heard a description of Iran like this before. I immediately thought of Persepolis, and Santari when I read Bahrampour's introduction, expecting the pieces to be similar. But in Bahrampouor's piece, she sets up the scenery of Iran just like some neighborhoods in America; kids with fancy cars and big luxurious mansions. The writing style of Bahrampour was one I especially liked, even though she didn't focus much on herself, she had a very strong voice in the piece, and you could tell she was very knowledgeable about Iran and all that has happened. I may have liked this better than Persepolis, though the art work and the movie made that piece very moving.
