Iranian Revolution

Have any of you heard of Persepolis? Carey, I'm assuming you have since you really get into graphic novels, perhaps you even have the movie? =) Anyway, for those of you who don't know about it, it's a graphic novel about growing up during the Iranian Revolution. I just saw a preview to the movie. What coincidental timing, eh?

Sadly we don't have any more time this year to get together, but it'd be an interesting read, and we could chat about it on here if anyone is interested. Carey, I'd be interested in your thoughts and how you think it compares to what we just read.

I'd love to talk about Reading Lolita in Tehran again in the fall if others want to do that. I loved it and it's so dense we could talk about it a lot more. Or we could just blog about it here. =)

I'm really going to miss book club with you all! I enjoyed every conversation we had this year (not to mention the delicious food). The books were significantly more fulfilling after being able to process with you guys. I'm sad we won't be the same group next year, but hopefully the book club will continue.

I also mentioned tonight that if we don't have enough people around to keep it going, we could just have a blogging book club, far less exciting (especially for my taste buds), but better than nothing.

Let's talk about what we're reading over the summer. Anyone interested? You could all read the romantics with me! =) Sense and Sensibility? Frankenstein? ...
