"“Although she may not have intended it, Satrapi
has grown into her youthful dream of prophethood. She is a voice calling out to
the rest of us, reminding us to embrace this child's fervent desire that human
dignity reign supreme."
2. No, I do not agree with the statement above. I don't think that she grew into her dream as being a prophet. She is not leading people by god, she is telling her story. In the beginning of the book she is religious, but as she relizes what is happening, and wants to take part, god doesn't come when she wanted him to. I think it was that moment when she was crying in bed asking "Where are you god?" where she lost the idea of becoming a prophet. Also I think after she learned more about the revolution and understood it, and wanted to be apart of it, she didn't want to be a prophet anymore.
