Reading Blog: The Dowry

This is the final chapter of the book.  Like many other books, Persepolis ended in a way that left the reader with a few doubts.  

Below are some of the questions I asked myself while reading the final chapter of the book.

Is the business that Marjane's mother and father have to take care of so urgent that they can't leave to Austria with Marjane? 
What is the business that Marjane's parents have to take care of in Iran? 
Why isn't Marjane looking at the positive side of leaving Iran (She seems to be very sad)? 
Are Marjane's parents going to move to Austria in 6 months? 
Is Marjane going to see her parents ever again? 
Is the revolution going to calm down soon or will it become worse? 
Why can't Marjane's grandmother come along to drop off her granddaughter at the airport?  
Is Marjane going to arrive safe to Austria or will one of the revolutionary officers stop her in the airport? 
Will Marjane be happy in Austria? 
What happened to Marjane's mother in the last page of the book? Did Marjane's mother faint?
