Took me a little while, but I've finished Persepolis (part 1). Like Delisle's Pyongyang, I went into this story not knowing a whole lot about the culture behind it. The story was a little slow, but if the narrator is to be believed (and since the book is labeled "memoir", I think she can be), Iran was not a nice place to grow up in the early 80's. I'm looking forward to reading the second part -- possibly even watching the movie after that.
