Beautifully illustrated allegory of fishes fighting tyranny (in the Persian Gulf)
4 stars
Found this at the Salt Lake Community College library, which has some nice selections, and found it kind of interesting and somewhat poignant, described at the end of the book) it's an Animal Farm-style allegory of the Iranian Revolution (with better art), but I only witnessed it on the outside in my teen years, so it still seems somewhat abstract. The story does bring home the depressing cycle of tyranny, repression, and violence that continues today, but also the message that there are people still hoping and striving for something better.
