Professional Reviews
|
| : |
New Yorker: "Satrapi's deceptively simple, remarkably powerful drawings match the precise but flexible prose she employs.", Publishers Weekly: "The question of what makes a life worth living has rarely been posed with as much poignancy and ambition as it is in [Marjane] Satrapi's dazzling new effort." [Starred review.], Time: "[Marjane] Satrapi's simple black-and-white drawing style, combined with the fantastical elements of her narrative, turns CHICKEN WITH PLUMS into a great bedtime story for melancholy adults." |
