This paper analyzes que identity issues present in the autobiographical graphic novel Persepolis (2007) written and illustrated by the Iranian author Marjane Satrapi. The comic book narrates the immigration process lived by the writer, who moved to Austria after the Islamic Revolution of 1979, and returned to her home country four years later. The intent of this research is to explore how this process of displacement culminated in Satrapi’s identity crisis and feelings of non-belonging, which are described in the work analyzed. Furthermore, the aim is also to identify the concepts of cultural identity, globalization and hybridism, in content of the graphic novel, while having as theoretical reference communication scholars such as Stuart Hall, Zygmunt Bauman e Nestor García Canclini. For that, a case study about Persepolis (2007) was conducted, from which was possible to assess that the position of oriental immigrant carried by Satrapi, as well as the cultural shocks lived during the displacement process were determinant to the author’s feelings of inadequacy and identity confusion during her experience abroad and after her return to Iran.
