The graphic novel, Persepolis, has an extreme sense of honesty to it as an autobiographical work. The author's telling of her past feels extremely real and shows a raw version of her life - flaws, mistakes and all. Marjane Satrapi does not work to cover up the unruly moments of her past, but instead uses them to construct a believable world that we can further empathize with. Herself as a character is not portrayed as a hero, but rather a person just like anyone else placed in the particular circumstances that life has thrown at her - it is this that seems to shine through in regards to the value of honesty.
