Allison Shubert Post # 10

This week I feel like the focus on what we were reading was surrounded around being an outcast. In the graphic novel The Complete Persepolis the main character named Marji faces very serious problems going around around her very calm and simple which at the time is not very realistic. She comes off as very naive and not understanding of the chaos going on around her. Her perspective on what's going on makes her viewed as an outcast because she is not reacting like others around her, which ultimately makes her feel alone.

The other story we read called "The Facts in the Case of the Departure of Miss Finch" by Neil Gaiman in the main character seemed allienated and outcasted by society. This is because of her intelligence and her attitude towards society which comes off as misunderstood. She can't seem to get along with society and seems to be distant towards everyone due to her lack of communicating.
