The Mother Superior at Marjane’s first boarding house is one of the story’s antagonists. She’s old, strict, and is immediately put off when she learns that Marjane isn’t a Christian. Several months later, the Mother Superior shows that she’s also bigoted and cruel—she insists that all Iranians have bad manners. When she kicks Marjane out of the boarding house, the Mother Superior lies to Marjane’s parents about why Marjane left in order to make herself look better.
