I don't know about other Satrapi works, sorry. Oh, I wouldn’t recommend Sloth at all — I found it unfocused and pretentious.

I don’t know about other Satrapi works, sorry.

Like <cite>Chicken with Plums</cite> it's B&W and has a string musician escaping a life he finds bleak through, um, sleeping - only this time he's a guitarist in a present-day American suburb instead of a tar player in 1958 Tehran. Meanwhile, do you know if Satrapi has any other translations into English coming up? So far I know she's released <cite>The Complete Persepolis</cite> (also see <a href="http://www.strippedbooks.com/comics/stripped01/marjane0.html" rel="nofollow"><cite>Persepolis 2.1: The Story of a Signing</cite> by Gordon McAlpin</a> - He transcribed one of her bookstore speech and Q&A sessions and illustrated it in her style), <cite>Embroideries</cite>, a chapter in <cite>My Sister, Guard Your Veil; My Brother, Guard Your Eyes : Uncensored Iranian Voices</cite> edited by Lila Azam Zanganeh, and the children's book <cite>Monsters Are Afraid of the Moon</cite>.
