Now that you have an idea of the complexities present in the graphic novel -- frame, gutter, foreground, background, color, panel, etc -- write about the challenges this genre represents. What do you now see or understand about the story that maybe you didn't see before we talked about all these elements. Write about any discomfort or confusion you've had. Think about how reading a graphic novel is different and/or the same as reading a regular novel. (What have you had to do differently to understand the story and all its elements?)What have you learned about graphic novels in general and specifically about Persepolis that you hadn't thought about before we started talking about this novel? Are graphic novels "just" comic books? Easy, quick reads?
