Originally published to wide critical acclaim in France, where it elicited comparisons to Art Spiegelman's Maus , Persepolis is Marjane Satrapi's wise, funny, and heartbreaking memoir of growing up in Iran during the Islamic Revolution. In powerful black-and-white comic strip images, Satrapi tells the story of her life in Tehran from ages six to fourteen, years that saw the overthrow of the Shah's regime, the triumph of the Islamic Revolution, and the devastating effects of war with Iraq. The intelligent and outspoken only child of committed Marxists and the great-granddaughter of one of Iran's last emperors, Marjane bears witness to a childhood uniquely entwined with the history of her country. Persepolis paints an unforgettable portrait of daily life in Iran: of the bewildering contradictions between home life and public life and of the enormous toll repressive regimes exact on the individual spirit. Marjane’s child's-eye-view of dethroned emperors, state-sanctioned whippings, and heroes of the revolution allows us to learn as she does the history of this fascinating country and of her own extraordinary family. Intensely personal, profoundly political, and wholly original, Persepolis is at once a story of growing up and a stunning reminder of the human cost of war and political repression. It shows how we carry on, through laughter and tears, in the face of absurdity. And, finally, it introduces us to an irresistible little girl with whom we cannot help but fall in love.

《美国兵眼中的战争:从二战、朝战到越战》中这11名美国兵，日后有的成了知名作家、文学教授、白宫记者、公司经理、私人侦探，以及园艺师、工程师。这增加了他们的人生经历的厚重感、沧桑感，有助于中国读者了解美国老兵眼中真实的美国社会。 这11名美国兵中，亲历第二次世界大战的吉米有令中国兵欣赏之处。美国兵与中国兵似乎有共同的爱憎，有共同的坚定信念。 1941年，吉米听说母亲乘坐的轮船被德军炸沉，于是怀着一腔热血，几经周折参加了美国海军。吉米像恨“德国鬼子”一样，恨“日本鬼子”。吉米“总是咬牙切齿地骂：日本人屠杀中国人，狠呀!”以至于几十年后，吉米仍有仇日情结，坚持不买任何“东洋货”，不买日本汽车。每次谈起日本人，他总是说，“这些混蛋王八蛋!”这令任何有血性的军人对他肃然起敬。 吉米所在的“博劳号”，在太平洋战争中，可谓功勋累累——“击沉击伤日本载兵舰四艘，如果平均每只船载兵五千的话，吉米这艘小小的潜水艇，一艘75人的潜水艇，消灭了两万日本鬼子。”吉米可谓美国二战军人中活着的“典型”。不过，战后，他回忆起菜特岛之战的残酷，不免常怀恻隐之心。

He is the deadliest American sniper ever, called "the devil" by the enemies he hunted and "the legend" by his Navy SEAL brothers . . . From 1999 to 2009, U.S. Navy SEAL Chris Kyle recorded the most career sniper kills in United States military history. The Pentagon has officially confirmed more than 150 of Kyles kills (the previous American record was 109), but it has declined to verify the astonishing total number for this book. Iraqi insurgents feared Kyle so much they named him al-Shaitan ("the devil") and placed a bounty on his head. Kyle earned legendary status among his fellow SEALs, Marines, and U.S. Army soldiers, whom he protected with deadly accuracy from rooftops and stealth positions. Gripping and unforgettable, Kyle's masterful account of his extraordinary battlefield experiences ranks as one of the great war memoirs of all time. A native Texan who learned to shoot on childhood hunting trips with his father, Kyle was a champion saddle-bronc rider prior to joining the Navy. After 9/11, he was thrust onto the front lines of the War on Terror, and soon found his calling as a world-class sniper who performed best under fire. He recorded a personal-record 2,100-yard kill shot outside Baghdad; in Fallujah, Kyle braved heavy fire to rescue a group of Marines trapped on a street; in Ramadi, he stared down insurgents with his pistol in close combat. Kyle talks honestly about the pain of war--of twice being shot and experiencing the tragic deaths of two close friends. American Sniper also honors Kyles fellow warriors, who raised hell on and off the battlefield. And in moving first-person accounts throughout, Kyles wife, Taya, speaks openly about the strains of war on their marriage and children, as well as on Chris. Adrenaline-charged and deeply personal, American Sniper is a thrilling eyewitness account of war that only one man could tell.
