Maus - Art Spiegelman
I recommend this book, it's another perspective on the tragedy of Holocaust. The drawings help you to better picture the situations and more easy to read comparing to a normal book.

Couldn't finish either, tried last week. I think part of it was the mouse aesthetic and just narrative style not grabbing me.karolinka wrote:I read Maus, but found it very depressing, since it discusses the issue of Holocaust. Could not finish it, even though it's illustrated well, and I normally finish every graphic novel that I start.

One feels like a duck, splashing around in all this wet. And when one feels like a duck, one is happy!

I agree with you. The mouse aesthetic is excellent. People from other parts of the world may find it funny, but for Germans, it's quite common for a man to call his girlfriend or wife a "Maus."Sparkletime wrote: ↑22 Dec 2016, 05:39 Maus is not just a wonderful reflection of the holocaust itself but also about the lasting effects on survivors and their families. Art Spielgelman is drawing from personal experience; this graphic novel is truly from the heart. I always love to hear about people reading it because it's a truly noteworthy story.
You an I, tonight!
You may forget the warmth he gave,
I will forget the light.
When you have done, pray tell me
That I my thoughts may dim;
Haste! lest while you're lagging.
I may remember him!
Emily Dickinson
