Reading Question

Why is Marjane's relationship with her uncle so important to her?
From what I have read so far, I believe that her uncle was a major inspirational figure to her and that she felt grounded with him around. He helped her to understand her family, the revolution, and anything else she wanted to know. That is why I believe when he died she felt lost and alone, because she felt uprooted and ungrounded now that her uncle wasn't around. She also seemed to lose her faith in religion after his death which may have been because she was thinking that her religion wouldn't allow for her uncle to be killed. This drives a wedge between her and God for what seems to be a long time.
