Acclaimed as a "quiet triumph"* and a "brutally moving work of art,"** the first volume of Art Spiegelman's Maus introduced readers to Vladek Spiegelman, a Jewish survivor of Hitler's Europe, and his son, a cartoonist trying to come to terms with his father, his father's terrifying story, and History itself. Its form, the cartoon (the Nazis are cats, the Jews mice), succeeds perfectly in shocking us out of any lingering sense of familiarity with the events described, approaching, as it does, the unspeakable through the diminutive. As the New York Times Book Review commented," [it is] a remarkable feat of documentary detail and novelistic vividness...an unfolding literary event."

This long-awaited sequel, subtitled And Here My Troubles Began, moves us from the barracks of Auschwitz to the bungalows of the Catskills. Genuinely tragic and comic by turns, it attains a complexity of theme and a precision of thought new to comics and rare in any medium. Maus ties together two powerful stories: Vladek's harrowing tale of survival against all odds, delineating the paradox of daily life in the death camps, and the author's account of his tortured relationship with his aging father.

Vladek's troubled remarriage, minor arguments between father and son, and life's everyday disappointments are all set against a backdrop of history too large to pacify. At every level this is the ultimate survivor's tale -- and that too of the children who somehow survive even the survivors.

A Masterpiece in its own right!!

Reviewed in India on 1 September 2019

It's a work of art. How Spiegelman sketches out absolutely heart wrenching scenes keeping true to the character forms he has built...Jews are the 'Maus', Germans the Cats and Poles the Pigs...lot of reviews have been written about these 2 books and I agree with all that has been written. As much a brilliant account of the most hateful act of WW2 as it a graphic novel lover's delight!

A Cruel Game of Cat - and - Mouse

Forget all you know about comics. The is literature without peer in the struggle to find a way to respond to the Shoah that has poisoned Europe this century. Art Spiegleman tells his father's story in such a way as to reveal the grief of the post-Holocaust generation. The pictures are the most perfect black-and-white, the issues never so. Beautiful drawings in the tradition of European woodcuts, horror in the tradition of our dark continent. Everyone on Earth should read this book.

Involving and heartbreaking story, beautifully illustrated. Brilliant conception which even with a wealth of information available everywhere about the holocaust, manages to shock with some of its scenes. A masterpiece.
