Question

Why is Marjane writing letters for Mehri?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

She is illiterate

Another instance is when Marjane helps write letters for Mehri because she is illiterate, since she is a maid for the Satrapi’s and never learned how to write. Then Mehri sends it to the neighbor boy and pretends to be Marjane’s sister because in Iran people not in the same social class aren’t allowed to marry each other.
