Edgar Allen Poe

Okay girls, what E. A. Poe have you already read in your previous schooling??
I really liked the ending to Persepolis... but I don't really understand what happened to the mother!
does anyone have any ideas? did she faint, or die?

Persepolis II

As I have said before, Persepolis II has been removed from our syllabus; however, if anyone would like me to order it at the 30% off discount for you anyway, I will be placing an order on Friday for the non-honors girls who are enjoying Perspolis I so much that they want to read the other one for fun.
